How to watch Belgium vs France in Canada: live stream, TV channel, start time, lineups for the Nations League game

Belgium hosts France on Monday in a crucial Nations League clash in Group 2 of League A. Belgium currently sits third in the group with four points after a 2-2 draw against leaders Italy.

A win over France would give them a lead in the table and keep their hopes of progress alive. However, their recent defensive problems – conceding goals in their last four games – could be a cause for concern in the face of a strong French attack.

France, second in the group with two wins and one loss, beat Belgium 2-0 in their last meeting. Another win for Didier Deschamps’ men would widen the gap and reduce Belgium’s chances.

The Sports News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the game, kick-off times and the latest line-up news.
