Belgium and Egypt have crossed paths four times previously, with every one of those meetings taking place in friendly fixtures. Egypt has come out on top in three of those contests—including a 2–1 win back in 2022—while Belgium has taken the remaining encounter.
Both nations kick off their 2026 World Cup journeys well aware that a winning start could prove crucial in the battle to advance from Group G. On paper, Belgium holds the edge. The Red Devils are ranked 10th in the FIFA World Rankings, compared to Egypt's 30th position, and come into the tournament on an unbeaten run spanning more than a year, following recent victories over Croatia and Tunisia. Egypt, by contrast, has managed just two wins from their last six outings and most recently suffered a 2–1 defeat to Brazil.
The historical record also tilts in Europe's favor. Egypt has not progressed past the World Cup group stage since 1934, whereas Belgium has become a consistent presence in the knockout rounds, most memorably claiming third place in 2018. That said, Belgium's unexpected group-stage elimination in 2022 is a reminder that reputations mean little once the competition gets underway.
