TEAM NEWS:
Steven Defour will be unavailable for Belgium following his suspension. While captain Vincent Kompany is also a doubt due to a groin injury.
Meanwhile, United States striker have Jozy Altidore has returned form a hamstring injury. USA are free of injury concerns.
POSSIBLE LINEUPS:
KEY MAN TO WATCH:
Eden Hazard (Belgium)
Chelsea star man Eden Hazard has not done something exceptional in this World Cup. People expected much from the youngster but has not fulfilled their expectations. Hazard has set up two goals but has not found the back of the net. But this time he will make a difference and will be a man to watch.
