Is this finally the year for Belgium to deliver at a major tournament? We should get a clearer idea on Sunday when they face Morocco at Al Thumama Stadium in Group F.
The No. 2-ranked side in the world heading into the Qatar 2022 World Cup, there has been surprisingly little fuss or fanfare about the chances of Roberto Martinez's Red Devils lifting the trophy in Lusail on December 18. And perhaps with good reason.
Blessed with some of the best individual players on the planet — not least Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne and Real Madrid playmaker Eden Hazard — on paper, Belgium have all the attributes needed to compete with, and beat, the very best. Yet they have never been able to take that final step.
After an opening 1-0 victory over Canada to start their Group F campaign, in which they were made to work hard and had to rely on a missed Alphonso Davies penalty for Les Rouges, Belgium can secure their place in the knockouts if results go their way in the second round of group games.
Morocco, however, are unbeaten in their last six matches and will harbor hopes of an upset that could lead them to a first trip to the Round of 16 since 1986.
Here's how you can watch all the action on TV and via stream online in Canada

Bell Media offers streaming via the TSN app, TSN GO, and on the TSN website, TSN.ca. For Bell Media cable customers with TSN in their subscription package, they can sign in to the TSN GO app with their cable login and access content for non additional charge.
Fans can also purchase a subscription to the streaming service via either a monthly or yearly subscription, allowing fans without cable to access all of TSN's content, including the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
As CTV is also a Bell Media channel, the streaming process for games available on CTV is not different than those on TSN. However, more fans will be able to access streaming for these games. CTV is a terrestrial channel across Canada, meaning that all providers with CTV in their package will be able to access games broadcast on CTV.
Customers can download the CTV GO app or go to CTV.ca and log in with their television credentials to access content. All games available on CTV will be streamed on CTV GO and the CTV website.
