Romelu Lukaku looks set to miss Belgium’s World Cup clash against England in Kaliningrad on Thursday.
The Manchester United forward is still battling to shake off an ankle injury suffered during the Group G victory over Tunisia.
Both sides have already qualified for the knockout stages, meaning the game is a straight shootout for top spot in the group.
Belgium manager Roberto Martinez said: "He had a really difficult knock against Tunisia and probably tomorrow is one day too early, but I don't think it is going to take any longer than that.
"We had very good news on the scan. There was no further damage, but it is still uncomfortable.
"I don't think he will be training today, and I think we will make a final assessment tonight in order for him to be involved or not. At the moment, it is still in (the) recovery phase."
Both England and Belgium have 100 per cent records in the competition so far, with Harry Kane having scored five of the Three Lions eight goals so far.
The Tottenham man leads the Golden Boot race going into the final group stage games, and former Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen hailed the England captain as a ‘complete striker’.
"What he has done in the league - of course I can only judge by seeing him on TV - he has scored a lot of goals and been very important for Tottenham and the English national team as well," Vermaelen said.
"He is a complete striker. He is strong, he scores goals. For me, he is a world-class striker."
