After sparking a comeback victory over Denmark on matchday two, Belgium enter the final round of fixtures with their place in the knockout stages secured.
Kevin de Bruyne shone bright after coming on as a substitute, scoring one and assisting one in a 2-1 victory. Finland enter crunch time on the back of a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Russia.
The Eagle-owls will aim to secure at least a draw to earn a spot in the round of 16.
Belgium to end group stages on a high
