Belgium will see their greatest generation of players start their World Cup bid on Monday when they will clash against Panama. This is theoretically a very easy group for Belgium, as Panama and Tunisia pose no threat and England are highly inconsistent. Belgium is expected to have a very easy job in the group, starting with a comfortable performance against Panama.

Belgium stormed through the qualifiers, as they finished at the top of their group (9-0-1). It was only Greece who managed to hold them to a 1-1 draw in Belgium. Belgium has one of the best productions with 43 goals while conceding just 4 in the process. They have a truly spectacular generation of players all maturing at the same time. Players with leading roles in Premier League clubs like De Bruyne, Hazard, Lukaku, Courtois and so many more. There's talent everywhere you look, and a full bench as well. Belgium did a pretty solid job in the previous World Cup when they reached the quarter-finals.

On the other hand, Panama is in the World Cup for the first time in their nation's history, and they will be delighted. They might not have any very recognizable names in their line-up, but players like Roman Torres or Gabriel Enrique Gomez and Luis Tejeda are going to be their stepping stones. The overall excitement of their first participation might make them a dangerous side at times, but they will probably play their usual style of massive defense. They know that they won't be able to match the stronger Belgians, so they will need to play this smart.
