TEAMS: Belgium

The Belgians produced some creditable performances at France 98, and will want to put the disappointing European 2000 campaign behind them. After qualifying a World Cup 2002 play-off over the Czech Republic, they will be confident of progressing through past the Group Stages and regaining the self belief and confidence some believe were missing at the European Championships. With renewed confidence and some quality individual players such as Danny Boffin, Marc Wilmots and Mbo Mpenza, Belgium will hope to comfortably progress from the Group Stages of the World Cup, a feat certainly possible after the recent victory against the French on their own turf.
