Shape: Belgium are set up by Rudi Garcia with a balanced, possession-first structure that can shift between a back four and a more conservative 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 look. The main attacking route is through wide isolation for Doku and Doku-like pace on the flanks, with De Bruyne and Tielemans supplying vertical passes and cutbacks.
Numbers: Qualifying output points to a controlled, efficient attack rather than an ultra-high-tempo chance volume team; they also finished qualification unbeaten, which suggests strong game management. I could not verify precise current xG-for/xG-against totals from the provided results.
