Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has claimed that his side are among the favourites to win Euro 2016 this summer.
The Red Devils are currently ranked as the second best team in the world by FIFA, and the best in Europe, although many bookies have them as fifth favourites to lift the trophy behind France, Germany, Spain and England.
The country's 'Golden Generation' reached the quarter-finals at the World Cup two years ago, and Courtois is hopeful that they can improve on that showing in France.
"I'm very much looking forward to the tournament. It's the second one for our generation, and after the World Cup when we reached the quarter-final, we felt we could do better," the Chelsea keeper told FourFourTwo.
"The hope this year is to go as far as possible. It'll be very hard, there are lots of top teams and you need sometimes to be a bit lucky. We go there and we think we are one of the teams that could win it, but of course we have to go step by step.
"We have a good side and we can go far but we must go step by step and approach every game like a final. A lot of it is about momentum. If you win your first game you feel in the mood and you are ready to do great things. Sometimes it is luck on the day that helps you or doesn't help you."
Belgium will take on Italy, Sweden and the Republic of Ireland in the group stage.
