BELGIUM will endeavour to book their place at next year's World Cup when they welcome Estonia in their penultimate Group E qualifier on Saturday night.
Roberto Martinez's men hold a five point advantage over both Czech Republic and Wales and a victory here would cement top spot in the section.
The Red Devils went in search of that elusive first trophy at last month's Nations League finals, but they threw away a two goal lead to lose 3-2 to France in a thrilling semi-final.
Belgian boss Martinez is now tasked with lifting the spirits of the world's number one ranked team ahead of Saturday's encounter with Estonia.
Thomas Häberli's team are unbeaten in two of their last three qualifiers but they have left it too late to qualify for the 2022 World Cup from Group E.
Estonia are battling it out with Belarus for the wooden spoon, with the Baltic nation one place and one point above the sectional whipping boys ahead of the final two rounds of fixtures.
Outright Betting
Belgium are unbeaten at home since September 2016 and the hosts are heavily fancied here at 1/20 with SBK.
Estonia have avoided defeat in each of their last three international away matches but the Blueshirts are big outsiders here at 71/1 (SBK) while a point apiece is an unfancied 17/1 (SBK) with the same bookie.
Betting Angles
Belgium are unsurprisingly massive favourites here but the aforementioned odds about a home win are far too short to side with so I'll head to the Bet Builder market to get a bigger price.
Combining Belgium to win, under five match goals and over zero Estonia cards will bring about a 10/11 (Bet 365) play and that looks like a nice way in.
Roberto Martinez is unable to call upon a number of familiar faces ahead of the final batch of qualifiers, with the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Toby Alderweireld and Youri Tielemans all out.
Having said that, I’d still expect the Belgians to see off an Estonian outfit languishing in 111th place in the world rankings with a minimum of fuss.
Sure, the Belgian boss may be forced to shuffle his pack but he has some serious firepower in reserve, all of whom will be keen to make the most of their latest opportunity to shine.
What's more, the Belgium to win and under five match goal combo has clicked in six of the Red Devils last seven competitive victories, so I'm more than happy to side with the same formula in Brussels on Saturday night.
To round off the Bet Builder, I'll go with a minimum of one Estonia card on a night where the star-studded hosts should enjoy the lion's share of possession.
The visitors have collected at least one card in each of their last five Group E outings and I'd expect that trend to continue against a top-heavy Belgium team who should stamp their ticket to next year's tournament with a professional performance.
