Belgium vs Bosnia-Herzegovina: Euro 2016 Qualifiers

Belgium vs Bosnia-Herzegovina

The Red Devils are second in Group B right behind Wales, while Bosnia can still make it to the playoffs if they get three points against the Belgians.
 

With both teams needing a victory to keep their goals alive, Belgium hosts Bosnia-Herzegovina during Matchday 7 of the Euro 2016 Qualifiers. Belgium wants to strip Wales from the first place, while the Bosnians need a victory to climb up the standings in order to keep their hopes alive.

These sides have met five times since Bosnia joined the international scene. Out of those five games, the team now led by Mehmed Bazdarevic has won three times, with only one win for Belgium. Their previous match during these Qualifiers ended up with a draw, with goals by Edin Dzeko and Radja Nainggolan.

The hosts managed to keep an undefeated streak that lasted fifteen games, but their loss against Wales prevented them from extending that number. If they win against Bosnia, the Belgians will be celebrating their 50th Euro Qualifiers victory in 113 games. 

Captain Vincent Kompany will return with the Red Devils after serving a one-match ban last June, while Nicolas Lombaerts must be wary of not picking up another yellow card, since he is one away of being suspended.

The hosts have scored more goals than any other side in Group B, having netted thirteen goals while only conceding twice. One of those two goals was scored by Edin Dzeko, Bosnia's all-time top scorer.

Bosnia hasn't had an easy run during the Euro 2016 Qualifiers, where they have struggled to get results. Even though their chances are very much alive, they need to get some points away from home in order to make it easier, and their previous record against Belgium states they could. Out of their two visits to Belgian ground, Bosnia-Herzegovina has won one game and lost another, so if they can stay focused, things could go their way.

Coach Mehmed Bazdarevic will want to win his third consecutive game as Bosnia's coach, after replacing Safet Susic as the team's manager. Bazdarevic led the team to a 3-0 away win over Andorra and another victory against Israel. 

This will be the National Team's 100th competitive game, having played 48 previous matches in the European competition. If they want to celebrate with a victory, Edin Dzeko's performance will be crucial, but he must be careful on the pitch since he is one yellow card away from being handed a one-match ban.
