Egypt Belgium vs Egypt: time, TV channel and stadium Group Stage of the FIFA World Cup 2026 · Monday, June 15, 2026 · 15:00 ET · Lumen Field, Seattle.
Match preview Belgium face a new World Cup with the mission of vindicating a generation that came close to glory without reaching it. Third in 2018, the Red Devils are looking in 2026 to close the cycle with a leading role. They debut against Egypt in a Group G completed by Iran and New Zealand, knowing a solid start is essential to set up qualification.
Egypt, one of Africa's most historic sides, return to the World Cup hoping to clear the group stage, something that has eluded them in their recent appearances. The Pharaohs have the pedigree and experience to trouble anyone. Measuring up to a power like Belgium in their opener will immediately test their credentials in the tournament.
