England vs Greece Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League
by Steve Ashfield in UEFA Nations League Predictions
England host Greece in the UEFA Nations League. This is a match in League B and it's the visitors who are the group leaders on goal difference after the first of two six matches. Both countries have won their first two games with wins over Ireland and Finland who prop up the group and are facing relegation.
This is the third match for England under their interim coach Lee Carsley. His first two matches have produced a couple of victories and both were to nil. Whether continued success will see him be given the job on a full-time basis remains to be seen. Another win here and away at Finland wouldn't do him any harm and put the Three Lions in with a great chance of winning promotion to League A.
The Blues and Whites will be out to continue the good start they have made to this group. They have also won both of their matches to nil but this is their toughest task to date. Read our match prediction.

England - Greece: Form Analysis
England have won both of their matches in this Nations League group by a 2-0 scoreline. That puts them a goal behind the Greek side in terms of goal difference. The Three Lions have only lost one of their last nine games and that was the Euro 2024 final defeat by Spain.
England out to win promotion back to League A
Lee Carsley's side have won five of their last six matches if you include extra time and penalties. Despite being relegated from League A in the last tournament, England have only lost one of their last five home Nations League games.
Greece will be missing Foris Ioannidis who has scored three goals in their two Nations League wins. That puts him one behind Harry Kane who scored twice for England against Finland in their most recent match.
The Pirate Ship will hope they don't get sunk at Wembley but they have never beaten England. Nine games have seen them draw twice but lose the other seven. Both those draws did come in away games though, one at Wembley.

England & Greece Squad Analysis
England are able to name a stronger squad for this match than for their first two Nations League matches. For the games against Ireland and Finland, Lee Carsley was without key players such as Kyle Walker, Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden and Cole Palmer. All four are available to him for this match and the upcoming one in Finland.
Harry Kane will be fit to play for England.
The big worry for England has been the fitness of Harry Kane. He scored both of their goals in the match against Finland but has had injury problems back at Bayern Munich. England's captain will be fit to play in this match. He's likely to be in the starting line-up, though Dominic Solanke and Ollie Watkins will also be considered. Out of the squad however are Morgan Gibbs-White, Kobbie Mainoo and Ezri Konsa.
Greece have been hit by the absence of Foris Ioannidis who has already scored three goals in this group. He was injured playing for Panathinaikos against Olympiacos and was not included in the squad for this match.
That means Greece will be relying more on Vangelis Pavlidis who plays for Benfica.

Our England vs Greece Prediction
A win for England will take them a massive step towards winning the group and being promoted back to League A. They have won both of their matches under Lee Carsley and are yet to concede a goal.
Their only loss in the last nine games played was when being beaten by Spain in the Euro 2024 final. Home form in competitive matches is strong and they have never lost a match against Greece.
The Greeks top the group at present but this is a tough match for them in their first time in League B. They failed to qualfy for the Euros and our main England v Greece prediction is England to win and lead at half and full time.
