Match Preview
It has been an inconsistent period for the England national team on the field, and their hopes of gaining automatic promotion back to the top tier of the Nations League will hinge on their result against Greece in Athens on Thursday.
Greece come into the penultimate round of matches after having won all four of their matches, which includes a shock victory at Wembley against England last month.
That success means that the Greeks have a three-point advantage over the Three Lions, while they also have an important three-goal swing in the goal difference column.

Greece followed up their shock win over England by claiming a comfortable 2-0 home win over Ireland on matchday four. The home side dictated proceedings against a below par opponent, and a historic chance of gaining promotion now rests over their final two matches in the Nations League.
Carsley will take charge of England for the final two times this week, before Thomas Tuchel takes the reigns at the start of 2025. England regained their confidence with a dominant display against Finland in their latest outing. Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Declan Rice scored the goals in a 3-1 success on the road.
