The Belgium national football team is set to face Tunisia in an international friendly at King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels tonight.
The Belgium vs Tunisia match will kick off at 8:00 PM WIB on Saturday, June 6, 2026.
This fixture will serve as a final warm-up for both teams before they depart for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will take place in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Belgium is considered one of the teams expected to perform well in the upcoming World Cup, although they are not among the top favourites to lift the trophy.
In Group G, Belgium will face Egypt (15 June), Iran (21 June), and New Zealand (27 June), and they are widely tipped to top the group.
Tunisia was selected as Belgium’s opponent in this friendly to simulate the style of play they might encounter against Egypt in the group stage of the World Cup.
Ranked ninth in the world, Belgium enters this match in strong form after an impressive 2-0 victory over Croatia on Tuesday.
Youri Tielemans opened the scoring in the 37th minute to give the Red Devils the lead, before Romelu Lukaku sealed the win with a goal in the 95th minute.
Head coach Rudi Garcia will be pleased with the clean sheet against Croatia, as defensive organization has been one of his key priorities in preparation for the World Cup.
Meanwhile, Tunisia will also compete in the World Cup, having been drawn in Group F alongside Sweden (15 June), Japan (21 June), and the Netherlands (26 June).
Most analysts expect the Netherlands to top the group, but it would be unwise for other teams to underestimate the Carthage Eagles, who possess a talented squad and the confidence to trouble any opponent.
Tunisia will be eager to build momentum with a win over Belgium after suffering a 1-0 defeat to Austria on Monday, in which Marcel Sabitzer scored the only goal of the match.
Head-to-Head and Statistics: Belgium vs Tunisia
There have been four previous encounters between Belgium and Tunisia, with the Red Devils leading the head-to-head record with two wins.

Match Prediction: Belgium vs Tunisia
Belgium is expected to dominate possession through their technically gifted midfielders. The match could also provide an opportunity for tactical experimentation and for fringe players to gain valuable minutes.
Tunisia is likely to implement a disciplined low-block defensive setup, relying on counterattacks and set pieces to test Belgium’s backline.
Both sides will aim to build confidence ahead of the World Cup, but Belgium is expected to come out on top after 90 minutes of play.
