15'
The corner comes to nothing and Wales have a chance to break.
14'
Kevin De Bruyne gets in-behind the visitors' back line but Gunter gets back to make a timely challenge and concede another corner.
13'
Bellamy dances down the left and swings in a cross that is headed to safety. That left-hand channel seems to be Wales' best hope of getting some joy.
12'
Belgium are on a run of eight internationals without defeat - winning seven.
11'
Belgium beginning to dominate after a sluggish start.
10'
Serbia are 3-0 up Against Macedonia which means Wales won't finish bottom of the pile - unless there is an incredible turnaround there.
9'
Simon Church romps into space on the left side of the area but his attempt to hang up a cross goes all wrong as the ball drfits over the bar. Wasteful.
8'
Danger for Wales as Daniel Van Buyten misses a flick-on at the near post with the loose ball cannoning off Vermaelen and rolling harmlessly out of play. That could have gone anywhere off the Arsenal defender.
7'
Belgium beginning to turn the screw and Axel Witsel earns the first corner of the game when his long range shot deflects a few yards off target.
6'
STAT: Wales have met Belgium on nine previous occasions, with only three matches ending in Welsh victories.
5'
Lukaku seizes upon a loose ball and rampages towards the Wales area. The alarm bells ring for the visitors but James Collins comes across and averts trouble with a well-timed challenge.
4'
Interestingly, both of tonight's captains represent Arsenal at club level. Thomas Vermaelen skippers the Red Devils while an in-form Aaron Ramsey has the honour for Coleman's charges.
3'
Wales enjoying some good possession in the early moments. Andy King ghosts into the left side of the Belgium area but sees his clever cut back nipped off the toe of Hal Robson-Kanu.
2'
Wales playing in their changed strip of green and white.

KICK OFF! Wales get us underway.
19.55
It's party time here as the hosts look to celebrate their qualification for World Cup 2014 with a win in front of their own fans. Can an injury-ravaged Wales spoil the fun? Or will it be business as usual for this red-hot Belgian side?
19.50
STAT: Belgium have won the last three meetings between the two teams, including a 2-0 win in the opening game of the current campaign at Cardiff City Stadium in September 2012.
19.45
STAT: Reading defender Chris Gunter is set to become the youngest Welshman to reach 50 caps at the age of 24.

Coleman (continued): "There are no excuses, we have had too many defeats. Finishing fourth in the group would not be a success because it's all about qualifying. When I say I want to look at how I can affect things going forward, do I want to deal with unrealistic expectations? But I can see the reasons why I want to lead the team. I can see why anyone would want to."

Coleman could well be at the end of his spell as Wales boss after talks over a two-year contract extension stalled. He said: "When was the last time a side seeded sixth qualified? We were seeded sixth this time and the expectation was that we should qualify. Others who were maybe involved before me said this group were going to be this, that and the other. But if you look at the teams we have been up against, I don't think there is a tougher group."
