England and Belgium may have to decide the top spot based on fair-play points.

England and Belgium both have two wins, eight goals scored, and two goals conceded. The fact that all statistics are balanced means the two teams are yet to decide the top spot in Group G after two rounds.

In the final matchday, when the two teams face each other directly, the winning team will secure first place in the group. However, if the two teams draw, the Fair-play points will be the deciding factor.

Harry Kane's England team has the advantage in Fair Play points over Belgium.

FIFA calculates Fair Play points by deducting points based on the number of cards received. One yellow card results in a one-point deduction, an indirect red card (resulting from two yellow cards) results in a three-point deduction, a direct red card results in a four-point deduction, and a yellow card and a direct red card (for the same player) results in a five-point deduction.

Based on the above calculation, England has a higher Fair-play score: -2. Belgium is second with a score of -3.

In the event of a tie in Fair-play points, FIFA may have to hold a random draw. This is what happened with the Netherlands and the Republic of Ireland in 1990.

Finishing first in Group G might not be as advantageous as finishing second, given the situation after two matches. The top team in Group G is likely to face the winner of the Germany-Brazil match in the quarter-finals. Meanwhile, the second-placed team might only have to face the winner of the Switzerland-Mexico match.
