Two sides vying to make it through the knockout phases lock horns in the UEFA Women's Nations League as third-placed Belgium host second-placed England in League A Group 1.
The Belgium Women side are currently trailing in the third position in the table with a win, a draw, and a loss taking their tally to four points from their opening three games. After their opening day victory against Netherlands, Belgium Women's side have followed up the victory with a draw and loss against Scotland and England pushing them down the table. With the two sides playing the reverse fixture, Belgium will look to take revenge from the Three Lionesses.
Lauren Hemp's early strike in the first-half of England's clash against the Belgium ensured that the former leapfrogged the latter in the table to mount more pressure on current leaders Netherlands. With just three games to go, the reigning European champions will look to finish their league stage seeded at the pinnacle of the summit and facing a team they have just defeated, Sarina Wiegman's side would be confident of producing another massive result away from home.
