In Match 14 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Belgium will take on Egypt in the Seattle Stadium. Belgium are one of the sides who are underrated going into the tournament but they have got enough personnel to make an impact in the tournament. Kevin de Bruyne will be playing his last World Cup and he will be keen on finishing at a high note. Egypt will be coming off a decent set of friendlies as they put up a fighting battle in every game and their sole loss came against Brazil. Their most remarkable game would be the one against Spain as they managed to get a draw in the game. It will be a fine contest between the two sides and the fans will be on the edge of their seats.

Match Prediction
Considering the way that the games have gone in this edition of the World Cup, it has become increasingly difficult to make an accurate prediction. Belgium have a very solid side with their talents separated across departments and the role of Kevin de Bruyne in playmaking would be crucial. On the other hand, Egypt have enjoyed a stellar run of form recently and every game they have fought hard till the end and even the defeats are the narrowest. Omar Marmoush and Mohammed Salah will be leading the charge for the side and Egypt do stand a chance of drawing a point. This game could end up in a draw considering the intense battle that both the teams will be having in the field.
