Roberto Martinez makes three changes to his Belgium XI for Sunday's World Cup fixture with Morocco.

Roberto Martinez has made three changes to his Belgium XI for Sunday's World Cup fixture with Morocco at the Al Thumama Stadium.

The Red Devils struggled for large periods during their 1-0 victory over Canada in their opening match, Martinez making two substitutions at half time in a bid to improve his side's performance.

Thomas Meunier and Amadou Onana were both introduced at that point, and the pair come into the side to replace Leander Dendoncker and Youri Tielemans, with Timothy Castagne seemingly being used in the middle of a back three.

Thorgan Hazard also comes into the team with Yannick Carrasco dropping down to the bench, with Michy Batshuayi retaining his spot in attack.

Meanwhile, Morocco coach Walid Regragui has stuck with the same 11 players which started the goalless draw against Croatia earlier this week.

Noussair Mazraoui had been an injury doubt after needing to be substituted versus the 2018 runners-up, but the left-back has been passed fit to retain his place.

Belgium: Courtois; Alderweireld, Castagne, Vertonghen; Meunier, Witsel, Onana, T. Hazard; De Bruyne, E. Hazard; Batshuayi

Morocco: Bounou; Hakimi, Saiss, Aguerd, Mazraoui; Ounahi, Amrabat, Amallah; Ziyech, En-Nesyri, Boufal
