Egypt return to the World Cup for only the fourth time in their history and will be determined to make a stronger impression than they did in 2018, when they lost all three group matches.
Qualification was relatively comfortable, with the Pharaohs going unbeaten throughout their CAF campaign and finishing top of their section with 26 points.
Mohamed Salah remains the focal point, although concerns over his fitness persist following a hamstring issue towards the end of the domestic season. Omar Marmoush, Trezeguet and Zizo will be expected to share the attacking burden if Salah is not at full capacity.
Where to Watch Belgium v Egypt
Kick-off is scheduled for 12:00 local time in Seattle on Monday, and 20:00 in the UK.
Live coverage will be available on BBC, with streaming available through BBC iPlayer.
International broadcast options will vary by region.
