WALES will face Belgium in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals in Lille on Friday night.

After Wales edged past Northern Ireland 1-0 on Saturday, the Belgians sealed their place in the last eight with a comprehensive 4-0 win over Hungary this evening.

Chris Coleman’s men beat Belgium 1-0 in Cardiff last June thanks to Gareth Bale’s goal.

That crucial victory went a long way to ensuring that Wales would qualify for Euro 2016.

The reverse fixture in Brussels in November 2014 ended 0-0, while a World Cup qualifier in Belgium in October 2013 ended 1-1.

James Chester, one of Wales' stand out players in France, says the pressure will be on Belgium this week.

"We've played a lot against Belgium recently and fared quite well," said the West Bromwich Albion defender.

"The pressure would be on them massively. I don't think we've felt too much pressure.

"We're here to enjoy ourselves and show what Welsh football is about and I think we're doing that."

And Coleman says his side will be happy to be underdogs against Marc Wilmots’ men.

The Wales boss said: “They have had some criticism coming into the tournament and they lost the first game.

“But if you have a squad with that quality then any team they play against, apart from maybe two or three, you will say that Belgium are favourites.

“That is OK,” he added. “We have dealt with that before. We have had to face that quality as they are a top team.

“We will be up against it but we won’t be fearing Belgium.”

The overall head-to-head record shows four wins for Wales, three draws and five Belgian victories.

The winner of the game on Friday night will play the winner of Poland v Portugal in the semi-finals in Lyon on Wednesday, July 6.
