Israel made a surprise on Thursday, surviving their visit to France and securing a goalless draw until the end. This was quite unexpected, considering they conceded a lot of goals in their previous matches and had four consecutive losses in the group. One of them came from Belgium with a 1:3 score as the "guest". However, Israel faces another tough "home" game outside the country, specifically in the Hungarian capital Budapest. Interestingly, their first meeting in September also took place in Hungary, but in the city of Debrecen.
Belgium started the tournament with a victory over Israel, but that remains their only win, as the team is definitely not in good shape. We have to go back many years to find when was the last time Belgium went four consecutive matches without a win, as they are currently. Here, Domenico Tedesco and his team have a good chance to get back on the winning track, especially considering that historically Belgium has always defeated Israel.
Prediction: win for BelgiumBoth teams are out of form, but while it's not surprising for Israel, Belgium going four matches without a win is not normal. Yes, these four matches were against serious opponents, but here the Belgians have a good chance to return to victories. I don't believe they will fail to win a fifth consecutive match, and I think they will overcome Israel again.
