World Cup Preview: France vs Belgium - Recent Form, Classic Encounter, Predictions & More

European super powers France and Belgium are set to face off against one another in a mouth-watering World Cup semi-final, after they both dispatched South American opponents in their respective quarter-final clashes last Friday.

France have steadily improved as the tournament has progressed and are now starting to justify the hype surrounding their presence at this year's tournament. They have kept three clean sheets from five matches and been largely untested thus far - even against the likes of Argentina and Uruguay.

Belgium have finally turned up at a major tournament and have seemingly put their disappointing performances at the 2014 World Cup and 2016 European Championships behind them.
