- Venue: Wembley Stadium (London)
England and Greece, eager to continue their winning runs in the UEFA Nations League, are gearing up for a showdown at Wembley Stadium on Wednesday evening.
Although it may seem surprising given the wealth of talent they possess, England must emerge as the winner of Group 2 if they are to reclaim their rightful place in League A of this competition, where they truly belong. Their quest for a swift return to the top division of the UEFA Nations League has gone exactly as expected, as they delivered two identical two-goal beatings, first against Ireland and then Finland in their opening two matches.
Having come agonizingly close to qualifying for Euro 2024 in Germany, only to be eliminated by Georgia in a tense penalty shootout, the Greek national side is now focused on leaving behind those painful memories and aiming to make an impact in their debut appearance in League B. Fortunately, the Galanolefki got off to a flying start in their UEFA Nations League campaign, having claimed maximum points from their opening pair of fixtures, but they sit ahead of the Three Lions only by virtue of a superior goal difference after putting five unanswered goals past Finland and Ireland.
England vs Greece Betting Tips: AH1 (-1.5)
After comfortably overcoming their opening two group-stage challenges, it's time for the top teams in Group B to face off, but we believe England will showcase too much quality for their opponents and take control of the table with ease. Ahead of the international gathering, Greece took a huge hit as they will be without their standout forward Fotis Ioannidis who had an excellent showing for his national team in September by netting three goals against Ireland and Finland. When these teams last clashed in 2006, England delivered a dominant four-goal rout of Greece, and we remain certain that the result will be no different this time as the Three Lions storm towards an emphatic win at their iconic Wembley. Even if the relentless striker Harry Kane doesn’t make the starting lineup, England boasts an impressive array of attacking alternatives, and it’s expected they will unleash their full force on the field, while extending Carsley’s unblemished start.

Greece team news
As mentioned, Greece suffered a major blow ahead of the international break with the injury of star forward Fotis Ioannidis in his last club game, likely paving the way for Benfica's Vangelis Pavlidis to take his place.
The experienced duo of Manolis Siopis and Dimitrios Kourbelis are expected to be named in the starting XI as defensive midfielders, while Georgios Masouras could secure a spot on the right flank.
