England will be looking to avenge their surprise 2-1 defeat to Greece last month when the two sides meet again, this time in Athens on Thursday. The Three Lions, currently ranked 4th in the world by FIFA, sit second in League B Group 2, three points behind leaders Greece.
Interim manager Lee Carsley will lead the team for their final two Nations League fixtures against Greece and the Republic of Ireland. Newly appointed head coach Thomas Tuchel, who takes over from Gareth Southgate, will not officially be in charge until January.
Greece have been in impressive form since the appointment of head coach Ivan Jovanovic in August, winning all four of their Nations League matches while scoring nine goals and conceding just one.
Key to Greece’s success has been striker Vangelis Pavlidis, who scored both goals in their win over England at Wembley, including a dramatic 94th-minute winner. The Greeks also secured a 2-0 victory over Ireland in their last match, with goals from Anastasios Bakasetas and Petros Mantalos.
England bounced back from the Greece defeat with a 3-1 win over Finland, keeping their promotion hopes alive. They have a strong record against Greece, winning all four of their previous away matches there by an aggregate score of 9-1. Victory by at least a two-goal margin on Thursday would see England overtake Greece at the top of the group on goal difference.
England will be motivated by revenge, but Greece have proven to be formidable opponents, especially at home where they are unbeaten in 11 Nations League matches.
