Romelu Lukaku in action for the Belgium national team.  Wearing the white kit. A busy weekend of World Cup qualifying action will continue on Sunday with a number of games, including Greece v Belgium. Sunday's game will be played at Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus.

Despite playing on the road on Sunday, Belgium has the edge to win. While not included in the top tier of clubs that will be playing in the World Cup, Belgium is widely considered to have a strong club that could make it to the quarter-finals of the tournament.

Here are the odds for Sunday's contest:

Greece, 27/5
Draw, 131/50
Belgium, 8/11

According to the bookmakers, here are the five likeliest outcomes of Sunday's match:

Belgium 1-0, 4/1
Belgium 2-0, 11/2
Draw 1-1, 6/1
Draw 0-0, 6/1
Belgium 2-1, 8/1

-

Belgium has been absolutely setting Group H ablaze so far, as they have compiled a 6-1-0 record during qualifying play.

Things become even more impressive when you consider that Belgium has scored 33 goals over 7 qualifying games while allowing just 2 goals.

Greece, on the other hand, is second in the group with a total of 13 points. This is an especially important game for Greece and they would love nothing more than to score a victory on home soil. This is going to be easier said that done, however, as they will be hosting the powerhouse Belgian side.

-

If Greece wants to have any hope of winning on Sunday, they will need to contain the offensive juggernaut that is the Belgian side.

The two sides played to a 1-1 draw in Belgium, so the Greeks will likely have a fair amount of confidence on Sunday. As mentioned, Greece needs the win on Sunday much more than Belgium does, so this will likely be a closer match than first anticipated.
