Belgium face Senegal this Wednesday as part of the round of 16 of this 2026 World Cup at Lumen Field in Seattle.

After their emphatic display against New Zealand (5-1), the Red Devils now take on the Lions of Teranga, who qualified as one of the best third-placed teams. It's worth noting that Debast is the only doubt in Rudi Garcia's squad.

On the Senegalese side, Pape Thiaw is expected to bring Diaw back into the starting eleven following Mendy's knee injury. Here are the probable lineups for both teams.

Belgium: Courtois - Castagne, Ngoy, Mechele, De Cuyper – Tielemans (c), Vanaken - Doku, De Bruyne, Trossard - De Ketelaere.

Senegal: Diaw - Diatta, Seck, Niakhaté, Diouf - P. Gueye, I. Gueye (c), Camara - Ndiaye, I. Sarr, Mané.
