Grecia vs. Inglaterra: Crucial UEFA Nations League Clash for Group B Supremacy
The highly anticipated match between Greece and England in the UEFA Nations League is set to take place on Thursday, November 14, 2024, at the Olympic Stadium in Athens. This encounter is crucial for both teams as they vie for the top spot in Group B2 of the competition.
Greece, led by coach Ivan Jovanović, comes into this match with a perfect record, having won all four of their previous matches and accumulating 12 points. Their last victory was a 2-0 win over Ireland, with goals from Anastasios Bakasetas and Petros Mantalos. A win against England would secure Greece’s leadership in the group and their promotion to League A[2][3][5].
On the other hand, England, now under the management of Thomas Tuchel, is in second place with 9 points. They recently defeated Finland 3-1, with goals from Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Declan Rice. England needs a win to stay in contention for the top spot and to regain their place in the top tier of the Nations League after a disappointing Euro 2024 campaign[2][3][5].
The two teams last met on October 10, 2024, when Greece pulled off a surprise 2-1 victory at Wembley Stadium, with Vangelis Pavlidis scoring a double and Jude Bellingham scoring for England. This match will be a chance for England to seek revenge and maintain their hopes of promotion[2][3][5].
The match will be broadcast in various regions, including the United States, where it can be watched on TUDN, tudn.com, and the ViX platform. In Mexico, it will be available on Sky+ and Sky Sports Mexico. Fans can also follow the match through live commentary on Radio MARCA and MARCA.com[2][4][5].
The probable lineups for the match include Greece’s formation of 4-2-3-1 with players like Vlachodimos, Rota, Mavropanos, and Pavlidis, while England is expected to field a 4-2-1-3 formation with Henderson, Walker, Colwill, and Kane[3][4].
