Why This Game Matters
It is not just any round of the UEFA Nations League. When Italy and Belgium face each other this Friday, September 25, 2026, at 3:45 pm (GMT), in Rome's Stadio Olimpico for the 1st round of Group A1, both teams will debut new projects under the technical command and each one carries a very different context.
The timing of each selection
The challenge is heavy: Italy has been out of three consecutive World Cups a sequence that still hurts in the fans of a four-time champion country and bets on a mixture of youth and experience to return to international prominence.
On the other hand, the Red Devils debut under Mark van Bommel. Even in full renovation process, Belgium keeps important pieces like Kevin De Bruyne, Youri Tielemans and Charles De Ketelaere as a basis of selection. That is: youth in construction but with plenty of experience on the pitch.
Escalation likely
