Script:

The Belgian national team trained in Bosnia on Sunday, ahead of their qualifying game against the hosts for Euro 2016. The Red Devils aim to carry on their winning streak in the group stages, as they spoke on Sunday amidst preparations for the match.

SOUNDBITE (French) Marc Wilmots, Belgium head coach:

"We find again a Belgian team who is a rival like before. We will play with a collective block to give as little space as possible to our opponent. The goal is to leave here with three points but we are playing a difficult opponent, an opponent of quality, ranked 24th in the world, who took part in the World Cup and have quality players. We have fear of Pjanic - he plays with Juninho at Lyon, who is remarkable. These are two attacking players who find the path to goal easily, Ibisevic and Dzeko - I don't know if Spahic will play but he is also of the level of an experienced player. So they are a good mix."

Both the corresponding match and the fate of group B look as exciting and unpredictable ever, as the order of the group would change drastically whatever the result. Belgium look to move to top of the group if the result goes their way, and Bosnia-Herzegovina could move up from fifth to second place. Wales are currently the leaders of the group with four points.
