Last 16: Hungary vs Belgium - (26/6/16) KO 8pm, BBC1/HD
Coverage of the game will also be on talkSPORT, BBC Radio 5 Live and on the BBC Sport website and App.
These two have met 12 times previously with Belgium claiming 10 wins over Hungary's 2. Belgium have won 6 of their last 8 meetings including the last 4-in-a-row. The Hungarians have lost just 1 of their last 8 internationals. It's the first time since the 1962 World Cup that they managed to stay unbeaten in the group stage at a major tournament. This is the first time since 1980 that Belgium have made it to the knockout stages of the Euros and this is also the first time that they have recorded back-to-back victories in the finals. |

I might be overly swayed by Hungary's last game but I think this could be the best match of the second round.
Whether it is or isn't, though, I wouldn't be surprised if Belgium came unstuck facing a Hungarian side that play nice, controlled football and possess good attacking options. |

I'd like to see Belgium finally click and produce the kind of display that all the pundits seem to think they're capable of but never provide.
If they don't then I hope Hungary do a number on them. |

While I have gone for Belgium winning this match, Hungary have, for me, been the real surprise packet this tournament and I wouldn't be shocked if they pulled off another win.

Woeful defending.
Alderweireld and Lukaku just made a short run forward and that was enough to lose of both of their markers. |

Deserved lead for Belgium, they have been well on top.
Good header by Alderweireld. |
