This highly anticipated Group G showdown will see Egypt, seven-time African champions, pursuing their first-ever victory on football's biggest international stage.

Group G favourites Belgium are slated to begin their World Cup campaign on Monday. The team, often referred to as the 'Red Devils,' will face Mohamed Salah's Egypt in their opening match. This encounter is scheduled to take place at the Seattle Stadium, marking the start of their journey in the tournament.
Egypt, who hold the distinction of being seven-time African champions, will enter this contest with a clear objective: to secure their inaugural victory on football's most significant global platform. Despite their regional success, the 'Pharaohs' are yet to achieve a win at the World Cup finals.
The match is expected to feature a prominent rivalry between two key Premier League players. Belgium's midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is anticipated to be in the starting lineup for his team. His presence will revive a long-standing competition with Egypt's talismanic forward, Mohamed Salah, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the Group G fixture. (Source: France 24)
