Belgium will face Japan.
Belgium: Roberto Martinez's men beat England to secure their status as Group G winners, despite him having named a very weakened team. While England will have a seemingly easier quarter-final if they beat Colombia, Belgium have the easier last-16 clash.
England will face Colombia.
England: Gareth Southgate made a big gamble by resting eight players to face Belgium and not bringing on Harry Kane s they lost 1-0. If England get through this tough contest they will, in theory, have an easier quarter-final; but if they don't, it will backfire badly on the boss. Colombia represent very difficult opponents for England after they lost out to Roberto Martinez's men.
