Belgium host England in the Nations League on Sunday evening as Gareth Southgate’s players set out to reclaim top spot in their group.
The Three Lions were 1-0 losers against Denmark in their last outing in the competition, seeing them drop to third in League A Group 2, equal on points with the Danes and two off leaders Belgium.
England, who beat Belgium 2-1 in the reverse fixture of Sunday evening’s showdown, could go top of the mini-table by taking three points against Roberto Martinez’s side in Heverlee.
That will also depend on the result of Denmark’s meeting with bottom Iceland, however.
