England

After securing two wins from two last time out in the Nations League, Lee Carsley and England are back and, this time, face a side level on points with them at the top of the group.

Greece currently holds the top spot on goal difference, and England aims to take that spot by securing the three points. 

Their campaign began with a 2-0 win against the Republic of Ireland, followed by Harry Kane scoring a brace to secure a 2-0 win over Finland in what was the striker’s 100th England appearance.

Greece

Starting off strongly, Greece also faced Finland and the Republic of Ireland, securing two wins from two. 

The goal difference that sees Greece top the group despite being level with England on points came from a 3-0 win over Finland and a 2-0 win over ROI.

It was Panathinaikos striker Fotis Ioannidis who Greece have to thank, as the 24-year-old scored three goals across both matches.

Match details

England vs Greece History

This fixture comes with some significance to English football fans, no doubt bringing back memories of one of David Beckham’s best moments wearing an England shirt.

On the 6th of October 2001, in the dying moments of the match, England were trailing 2-1 at Olf Trafford with a place in the 2002 World Cup Finals at stake. Manchester United favourite and England captain Beckham steps up to take a free kick in the 93rd minute and…

“Up over the wall and in! David Beckham has done it. It had to be Beckham!”

The two sides have met seven times in their history, with the most recent being back in August 2006 which saw England win 4-0.

ENG vs GRE Betting Tips
