Zetterberg and Baseggio will be in the line-up against Brussels tomorrow. Broos is forced to choose for Aruna as only striker. It's the first time this season that Zetterberg and Baseggio will play together in an official match.

"Do we have another option than to play with five midfielders?", askes Broos. "We don't have any strikers left. Mbo Mpenza (rupture of the thigh) is normally out. Jestrovic (arm fracture) is also out. Iachtchouk? He will play with the reserves first, then we'll see."

Iachtchouk reacted very disappointed: "I thought I would start. I didn't see another solution. But I guess there's another solution, because I have to play with the reserves. We don't have enough strikers, and still I don't play. I don't have any physical problems, whatever Broos says. It's very clear to me now. I still have a contract for a season and a half, but things can go very quick, just think about Seol. On the other hand, I have to think about my family", said the striker.

After the offensive trio Aruna-Baseggio-Zetterberg, Yves Vanderhaeghe will make his appearance. Besnik Hasi, who usually is the defensive midfielder, played an interland with Albania, and will probably get some rest. Fabrice Ehret will probably also play against Brussels. He will have to wait first, to see how Christian Wilhelmsson returns from his match with Sweden. Michal Zewlakow won't play, he has a muscle rupture. Goran Lovré seems to be available for Friday.
