England v Greece

England vs Greece Preview

England find themselves in the second tier of the Nations League for the first time since the competition started for this forthcoming campaign and the Three Lions will also have a new head coach in place for the time being as interim coach Lee Carsley is tasked with getting England back up into League A as soon as possible, while Greece will be keen to collect a third win on the trot at Wembley Stadium.

England under Lee Carsley have made a promising start to this new Nations League campaign as the hosts have recorded early back-to-back wins against Republic of Ireland 2-0 away from home along with a solid 2-0 home win at home against Finland, so the Three Lions will be confident they can continue their winning momentum on Thursday night in the nation's capital.

England had previously been beaten by Spain 2-1 in the recent Euro 2024 final which prompted the resignation of former coach Gareth Southgate, but subsequent results have nevertheless been encouraging.

The bigger picture shows England have lost just this single game within their previous nine internationals overall whilst picking up six wins in the process, while the hosts have lost just twice in their last 10 internationals on home soil as well.

Greece have also captured wins in each of their opening two games in Group 2 as the visitors have chalked up victories against the likes of Finland and Republic of Ireland and having also previously collected a 2-0 win away from home at Malta in an international friendly, that means Greece bring a three-match winning streak into this upcoming contest at Wembley Stadium.

However, recent results on the international stage have been something of a mixed bag where Greece have been concerned as the visitors have picked up seven wins, drawn once but have also slipped to five defeats within this 13-game period as well.

Four of Greece's seven wins have been achieved on home soil while results away from home have been either a hit or a miss as the visitors have managed to capture just four wins within their last 11 outings on the road along with being handed no fewer than six losses along the way as well.

Having also failed to score in four out of these last 11 away internationals overall as well, Greece look to have their work cut out against a buoyant English outfit who will enjoy the home support at Wembley Stadium no doubt.

England v Greece Verdict

England have held the upper hand in recent exchanges as the Three Lions have won four of the last five meetings and as the hosts have also been tough to beat at home overall, Lee Carsley's side look capable of keeping a clean sheet here as well.

Therefore, our main bet will be BTTS No @ 1.57
