Which Chelsea players will be in the lineups tonight then? (England vs Belgium)

Anyone know the Belgium lineups? I'm guessing Lukaku and Hazard will feature, although it's probably optimistic of me to hope that either Courtois or De Bruyne would play also?

Cannot find lineup news anywhere

I'm looking forward to this game for one reason - Andy Carroll. Joking, obviously Hazard! Going to watch him and only him, see how well he does against a decent defense. Usually I don't look forward to England, but Hazard should make things interesting!

Simon Mignolet (Sunderland)

With Atletiko winning EL with our boy things might change. I can see the coach giving him a chance today. I like Mignolet, too, but it's a friendly so I think there's a good chance that we see Courtois. Hazard is 100%. Lukaku might start for the same reasons as Courtois - he hasn't played a lot and I am sure the coach would like to help one of his most promising stars with a First 11 start at Wembley - just to remind Chelsea on what they're missing by ignoring him. KdB - broken toe, unfortunately. He would have been a sub anyway but would have loved to see him smash a couple of sitters past Hart! : ) From England - JT, Cahill, Cole - the ususal suspects :)

Oh, and based on the England squad, I can predict a surprising result at Wembley. Narrow win for Belgium with Hazard and Witsel the scorers for them.

Yeah, I thought Courtois had recently established himself as Belgium's no.1 keeper based on his quality season.

Hazard will be playing as a false 9 apparently today which will be intersting to see how that unravels as it's his 1st time playing in that role. Courtois, Hazard to start and Lukaku to come off the bench. Should be awesome

This Belgium squad has some impressive players, I can see there being a few English red faces after the game tonight.

Friendly matches usually bore me to death, but I'll be watching how Hazard deals with the Chelsea back three with interest.

That's what I thought. Didn't athletico finish 6th or 7th in their league. Made me think courtois would start for his country?

Zamora Trophy (goals conceded per game)

1. Valdes 0.8

2. Casillas 0.84

3. Courtois 1.14

Clean sheets in La Liga

1. Valdes 17

2. Courtois 15 (24 in all comps)

3. Casillas 14

So yeah great season for Courtois. Imo, has what it takes to start at the Prem level but we've got the luxury of having Cech in goal for a few more years to come
