Brazil vs Belgium Predictions


Brazil surprised many with their performance against Hong Kong last weekend, losing by a singular point. However, Belgium have a stronger set of forwards, which Brazil may struggle to deal with.

Head to Head


Brazil and Belgium have never met in a Rugby Union match.

Brazil Form


Brazil rugby is on the rise and they came within seconds of claiming a famous win over Hong Kong last weekend.

Hong Kong were big favourites going into that match, but Brazil more than held their own. A poor error right at the end cost the South Americans a famous win.

Still, Brazil will take a lot of confidence from that 26-25 defeat. Belgium will be a sterner test but on home soil, the flamboyant Brazilians are sure to give it a good shot.

Brazil Injuries & Team News


Brazil won’t want to tinker too much with their side, this is a great opportunity to play a European side at full strength.

Belgium Form


Belgium are expected to win this game as they continue to prepare for World Cup qualifiers.

Two weeks ago, Belgium lost 33-5 in Chile, not a particularly good result, but Chile did qualify for the World Cup last year, so they were expected to beat Belgium.

Last week, Belgium were in good form despite a slow start against Paraguay. Three second half tries helped Belgium take a 45-20 victory where their backline showed great promise and the maul also contributed two tries.

Belgium Injuries & Team News


Belgium are unlikely to make too many changes to their side from last weekend. Paul Gerard was really good in the loose trip while Matias Remue looked solid at flyhalf.

Verdict

Belgium are tipped to cover the -19 handicap against Brazil.
