Who's the coach?
Roberto Martinez. Ever-smiling and ultra-positive, but his defensive nous is open to question. Decision to leave out Radja Nainggolan has proved controversial.
What are his and Belgium's tactics and likely formation?
JJ Bull on how the Red Devils' squad of superstars could finally fulfil their potential and deliver:
Who's the star?
Plenty to choose from, but Kevin de Bruyne and Eden Hazard are the picks of a very talented bunch.
Best thing about them
A squad which is the envy of almost every nation on the planet. Loud, boisterous fans.
Worst thing about them
Culture of underachievement at major tournaments. The perennial 'dark horses' tag no longer applies - this team should be challenging.
You may recognise...
Quicker to list those you won't. For added confusion, the squad also contains the lookalikey brothers of Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku (Thorgan and Jordan).
Cameramen will be picking out...
The proud Lukaku and Hazard parents, presumably.
Fans' favourite chant
A viral video from 2016 showed Belgian and Ireland fans congregating in the shared language of 'La-la-la-la-las'.
On-field prediction
Imperious right up until they meekly exit in the quarter-finals to some gnarled South Americans.
Off-field prediction
Fine until they go out, then anonymous media briefings about the standard of hotel catering and a 'coarse' feel to the grass at their training base.
