A formidable trio

Considered as dark horses, the Red Devils will be going to Russia with one of the best attacks in the world. The golden generation of the country has lots of big names in their squad. Chelsea's Eden Hazard is the key player in their front line. Hazard, with his silky smooth touches and brilliant dribbling abilities, can produce moments of brilliance in the tournament.

Napoli's Dries Mertens, who will be operating from the right has enjoyed a great season with 22 goals and 12 assists.

Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku will be the target man for the free-scoring Belgium side. The 25-year-old striker has netted 11 times in the qualifiers and he is coming after a successful first season with the English Club where he has scored 27 goals. With 36 goals from 69 matches, Lukaku is the top scorer, already, for his country and he will be one of the serious contenders for winning the Golden Boot this time around.

With Kevin de Bruyne, the best playmaker in Premier League, feeding these forward line, Belgium can tear their opponents apart.
