USA vs Belgium Tickets | World Cup Round of 16
The USA take on Belgium in the Round of 16 at Seattle Stadium on 6 July, with kick-off at 1 am BST — in the early hours of Tuesday 7 July for fans in the UK. The co-hosts continue their World Cup journey against one of Europe's most talented sides, roared on by a passionate home crowd in one of America's great football cities. A place in the quarter-finals is on the line in what promises to be a compelling knockout tie.
The USA came through their Round of 32 tie with Bosnia despite playing much of it a man down, while Belgium's 'golden generation' rallied to beat Senegal, Youri Tielemans scoring twice. Seattle Stadium, better known as Lumen Field, is one of the loudest venues in the country, and with the hosts in action it should generate a thunderous atmosphere for Mauricio Pochettino's side against the star quality of Belgium.

USA vs Belgium Preview & Predictions
The USA have grown into the tournament as co-hosts, with the huge advantage of playing at home. Mauricio Pochettino's side battled past Bosnia in the Round of 32 despite being reduced to ten men, showing the resilience and togetherness that has carried them this far. Led by captain Christian Pulisic, they are quick, direct and dangerous, and will be desperate to reach the quarter-finals on home soil.
Belgium arrive with a squad brimming with quality. Rudi Garcia's side, built around the experienced core of Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and Thibaut Courtois, came from behind to beat Senegal, Youri Tielemans scoring twice in an impressive comeback. Talented, experienced and dangerous, the Red Devils will believe they have the class to go deep in this tournament.
It is a fascinating tie between home advantage and star power. The USA have the crowd, the energy and the momentum, but Belgium have the individual quality and big-game experience to take control. One notable absentee is USA striker Folarin Balogun, suspended after his red card against Bosnia — a blow for the hosts against such dangerous opponents.
Key Players to Watch
The USA look to captain Christian Pulisic, their talisman and biggest attacking threat, to make the difference. Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams bring energy and drive in midfield, Antonee Robinson attacks from full-back, and the passionate home support acts as a genuine boost. With Folarin Balogun suspended, others will need to step up in attack.
Belgium are led by the brilliance of Kevin De Bruyne, one of the finest playmakers of his generation, with Youri Tielemans in fine form after his brace against Senegal. Romelu Lukaku offers a proven goal threat up front, Jérémy Doku provides pace and trickery out wide, and Thibaut Courtois remains one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
Seattle Stadium – Match Venue
Seattle Stadium, officially Lumen Field, will host this Round of 16 tie on 6 July. Home to the NFL's Seattle Seahawks and MLS's Seattle Sounders, it holds around 69,000 and is famous as one of the loudest stadiums in the United States, its design trapping and amplifying crowd noise. Set in the heart of downtown Seattle, it is one of the country's great football atmospheres.
With Seattle among the most passionate football cities in America and the co-hosts in action, the venue should be at its deafening best. The USA have already played here at this tournament, and a fervent, partisan home crowd will do all it can to roar the team into the quarter-finals.
How to Get to Seattle Stadium for This Match
Seattle Stadium is one of the most accessible venues at the tournament, sitting in the SoDo district on the southern edge of downtown Seattle. The Sound Transit Link light rail stops at Stadium station right beside the ground, running directly from downtown and from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in around 40 minutes, making it by far the easiest way to arrive. Much of downtown is also within walking distance.
With the light rail dropping fans right at the stadium, public transport is comfortably the best option on match day. As ever, it's worth arriving in good time, allowing for security checks, and planning your return journey in advance, as services and the surrounding streets will be busy.
Seattle Fan Guide for Match Day
Seattle is a wonderful city to explore on match day, from the famous Pike Place Market and the waterfront to the views from the Space Needle and the coffee shops that made the city's name. Set against the stunning backdrop of Puget Sound and Mount Rainier, it offers plenty to see and do, with a lively downtown right by the stadium.
Expect an electric, colourful atmosphere, with a passionate American home support joined by Belgium's travelling fans. As one of the USA's true football cities, Seattle knows how to put on a show, and with the co-hosts in a knockout tie it's well worth arriving early and making the most of the occasion.
Road to the Round of 16: USA & Belgium
Both teams came through dramatic Round of 32 ties. The USA showed great character to see off Bosnia despite spending much of the match with ten men after Folarin Balogun's red card, the co-hosts digging deep to book their place in the last 16 in front of their own fans.
Belgium, meanwhile, lived up to their billing as comeback kings, recovering to beat Senegal with a Youri Tielemans double. Rudi Garcia's side showed their resilience and quality to advance, and arrive in Seattle as one of the more dangerous teams left in the competition.
It sets up a compelling knockout tie. The USA have home advantage, momentum and a raucous crowd behind them, but Belgium have the star names and the experience to quieten the Seattle noise. With Balogun suspended, the hosts face a stern test — but on a night like this, they will fancy their chances of a famous win.
