Belgium should be one of the exciting teams to watch in this year’s <\/span>World Cup in Qatar<\/span><\/a>. The world’s second-best men’s national team boasts of prodigious talents such as Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, and Leandro Trossard. Going by its average age, the team will also be among the most experienced to strut the Qatari pitches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The team that’ll be seeking to clinch its maiden WC trophy on its 14th attempt is the oldest at the showcase. That’s according to a <\/span>Safebettingsites<\/span><\/a> analysis of the average ages of participating teams.

At 27-28 is when most players are in their prime. It’s an age that comes with a certain maturity mentally. And that maturity is key in handling the pressures associated with such tournaments.”<\/span><\/p>\nThe Belgians’ seniority could be a boon<\/b><\/h2>\n
