The Belgians head into the match having finished at the top of Group H with a maximum nine points.

Despite their impressive showing so far out in Brazil, Van Buyten does not want the squad to get carried away too soon.

"We'll have all the time in the world to pick over everything afterwards. The World Cup is happening now and we have to rise to the challenge."
