Belgium meet Ukraine in Stuttgart on Wednesday, with both sides hoping for Euro 2024 progression from a tightly-contested group.
Group E is finely poised heading into the final matchday at Euro 2024, as all four teams in the group have three points after the opening two group games, so it's everything left to play for.
Belgium responded to the surprise 1-0 upset by Slovakia in their opener with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Romania on Saturday as Youri Tielemans and Kevin De Bruyne got on the scoresheet.
Serhiy Rebrov's side, similar to their opponents, were stunned in an opening 3-0 defeat to Romania but responded with a 2-1 victory over Slovakia last time out.

The Red Devils will grab first place in Group E if they triumph and Slovakia only manage a draw or defeat against Romania, but a loss combined with Romania earning at least one point will doom them to another miserable group-stage exit, similar to their fate at the 2022 World Cup.
As for Ukraine, the Blue and Yellow will ensure a top-two finish if they win and could even top the section with all three points if they better Romania's result.
Alternatively, a draw would be enough for a third-place finish and perhaps a last-16 berth given there is a winner in Romania's match against Slovakia, and even defeat may not prove devastating if the Slovaks also suffer defeat.

Ukraine vs. Belgium lineups, team news, starting 11
Ukraine boss Serhiy Rebrov switched to a 5-3-2 and welcomed Everton left-back Vitaliy Mykolenko back to the starting lineup after he missed their opening two games with a foot injury. Oleksandr Zinchenko drops to the bench, while Mykhailo Mudryk was absent from the matchday squad.
Roman Yaremchuk earned a recall after scoring the winner against Slovakia and partnered Artem Dovbyk in attack. The Girona striker finished the season as La Liga top scorer with 24 goals, but he has so far underwhelmed at Euros.
Ukraine starting lineup (5-3-2 right to left): Trubin (GK) — Tymchyk, Zabarnyi, Svatok, Matviyenko, Mykolenko — Sudakov, Brazhko, Shaparenko — Yaremchuk, Dovbyk.
Dodi Lukebakio is suspended for Belgium which opened the door for Leandro Trossard's return to the starting XI.
On the injury front, Axel Witsel (adductor) and Thomas Meunier (thigh) did not play any part in the win over Romania and remain doubtful for Wednesday's showdown as well. Arthur Theate downplayed concerns over his fitness after being replaced in the 77th minute with a blow to the thigh and the Rennes defender was fit to start.
Despite his best efforts, the ball just will not cross the line for Belgium's all-time top scorer Romelu Lukaku at Euro 2024, who has seen three goals ruled out by VAR so far.
Belgium starting lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Casteels (GK) — Castagne, Faes, Vertonghen, Theate — Tielemans, Onana — Doku, De Bruyne, Trossard — Lukaku.
Ukraine vs. Belgium prediction
- Score prediction: Ukraine 0-1 Belgium
Both teams have showed their powers of recovery from an early shock by winning their second game at the Euros, but they know very well that another defeat will likely send them home.
Belgium are the favourites but have not shown enough clinical edge in the final third so far to suggest it will be a straightforward affair.
Still, chance creation has never been a problem for Belgium, who have instead been guilty of wasting golden scoring opportunities in their opening two games. They do, however, face a leaky Ukraine defence, so their profligacy should not cost them.
TSN backs Domenico Tedesco's men to come away with the triumph needed to earn their well-deserved spot in the knockout round, leaving Sergiy Rebrov's side waiting with fingers crossed to find out their fate.
