World Cup 2018: 5 teams who can practically field two teams in the knockouts

#4 Belgium

Belgium is currently seeing their own Golden Generation trying to win an international trophy. Despite stuttering at Euro 2016, the Red Devils won all 3 games in this World Cup's group stage. The last win over England showcased their bench strength as manager Roberto Martinez dished out the changes.

Belgium's first XI is as good as any

Belgium's first XI boasts of world-class players such as Eden Hazard and Kevin de Bruyne while the likes of Romelu Lukaku and Dries Mertens are no slouches either. The defence has the dependable Thibaut Courtois in goal with Premier League trio Jan Vertonghen, Vincent Kompany and Toby Alderweireld as the central defenders.

Belgium's second XI has more quality than most

The second XI has a decent defence with Simon Mignolet in goal and the trio of Thomas Vermaelen, Dedryck Boyata and Leander Dendoncker in the heart of the defence. The midfield has the youthfulness of Thorgan Hazard and Youri Tielemens balanced by the experience of Mousa Dembele and Nacer Chadli. Michy Batshuayi leads the attack with support from Marouane Fellaini and Adnan Januzaj.

This quality depth gives Belgium a great chance to fix their international hoodoo this time around.
