Vangelis Pavlidis is in fine goalscoring form in recent weeks, scoring three goals in his last four appearances for Benfica. He scored a brace against England in the reverse fixture at Wembley Stadium and will be full of confidence heading into this all-important top of the table clash at home territory. Missing the likes of Levi Colwill, Harry Maguire, Declan Rice, Trent, Stones and Mainoo, England will be weakened in both defence and midfield which provides a big boost for our selection.

Greece have been the most impressive team in this group, currently sitting top after winning all four of their Nations League fixtures having scored nine and conceding just one goal in the process. They deservedly beat England 2-1 last month and now back at the Athens Olympic Stadium they will be expected to get another positive result having lost just once in their last 13 home games in all competitions at their own turf.

Greece accumulated five corners in the reverse fixture against England at Wembley Stadium and I expect the hosts to start this top of the table clash on the front foot and get into threatening positions. A lot of their attacks went through the wings against England last month and a similar style of play could result in plenty of corners for the home side. Greece have cleared the “over 1.5 team corners” line in all four of their Nations League group stage fixtures so far this season and in seven consecutive fixtures in this competition overall.

I expect this trend to continue against an England side that has seen most of their key players withdraw from the squad due to fitness issues.
