England vs Greece prediction and stats: Will Carsley make it three out of three?
England will look to maintain their 100% record in this season’s Uefa Nations League B when they host Greece.
Three England vs Greece predictions
England 2-0 Greece (odds TBC)
England won their first two Uefa Nations League B matches 2-0, while they’ve scored two goals in four of their last six matches across all competitions.
Harry Kane anytime goalscorer (odds TBC)
Harry Kane has scored six goals in 11 England caps in 2024, including two against Finland last time out. If fit, the Bayern Munich striker will fancy his chances against Greece.
Under 2.5 goals (odds TBC)
England have scored two goals or less in each of their last 10 matches, while Greece have only conceded five goals in their last 11 matches — although the teams to breach them during that time have been the Netherlands (1), France (2) and Germany (2).

How both teams go into England vs Greece
It remains an interim reign for now, but Lee Carsley has made the perfect start to life in charge of England, beating the Republic of Ireland and Finland 2-0 in the previous international break to kick off their Nations League campaign. Carsley is now the heavy 1/4 favourite to take the job permanently according to Bet365 and another three points against Greece at Wembley would do his chances no harm.
Greece will pose a tough task for England, however. Ivan Jovanovic’s men currently sit top of the group on goal difference after seeing off Finland 3-0 and Republic of Ireland 2-0 in the last international break, while they boast an incredible defensive record in recent times, with only France, Germany and Netherlands scoring against them since June 19th, 2023.
England vs Greece will always bring back fond memories for England fans thanks to David Beckham’s free-kick at Old Trafford to secure their place at the 2002 World Cup.
