Having just sealed their place at Euro 2024, Group F leaders Belgium celebrate by welcoming Sweden to Brussels on Monday evening.
While the Red Devils are already making plans for next summer's finals, their Swedish counterparts must win and hope Austria slip up in Azerbaijan.
Group F's top two met in Vienna, each knowing that they would seal a spot at the finals with victory, and the Belgians built on a 12th-minute lead when Dodi Lukebakio scored his second goal shortly after half time, before Lukaku seemed to have put them out of sight.
Austria fought back, though, and Belgium were made to hold on for maximum points after Amadou Onana was shown a second yellow card; nonetheless, the Red Devils now top the table on 16 points with five wins and one draw.
Domenico Tedesco's side sit some 10 points clear of third-placed Sweden, and since a dismal group-stage exit at the 2022 World Cup, Belgium have won six of their new coach's first seven matches.
