Belgium are without star striker Romelu Lukaku, but I still love them to win here. Canada are a surprising participant at this World Cup, benefiting from what was a poor qualification zone in Concacaf. With Kevin de Bruyne leading the charge, the Red Devils get the job done here to start the tournament off on a high note. Don't forget, Thibaut Courtois in one of the very best goalkeepers in the world. He can take over a game, but he shouldn't have to deal with too much trouble.

Belgium are desperate to find success with the last chance of their Golden Generation. You can never count out a side that has the best midfielder in the world in Kevin De Bruyne. Meanwhile Canada have yet to score a goal in the World Cup. I believe that changes today with both teams scoring and contributing to a high-scoring affair, with both sides desperate to start off their campaign with points.

Canada may not have enough to win this match, but they're going to be an extremely difficult matchup for Belgium. This Belgian side is just not what they were, with their golden generation of talent inching towards the end of their careers. They still attack but their defensive line can't cover the gaps the players up the field leave them. And Canada are a team that know exactly what they're about. Jonathan David is the perfect striker to conduct a counterattack and Alphonso Davies can win matches all by himself, The major question is Davies' health. A 90 minutes fit Davies could lead Canada to a shock win, a 30 minutes fit version of the fullback might leave them coming up a little short.
