Greece play host to Cyprus on Thursday

Greece will be looking to make it three wins from three and extend their lead at the top of Group C2 when they play host to Cyprus at the Panthessaliko Stadio on Thursday.

The visitors, who are yet to taste victory in the UEFA Nations League, will be looking to end this dry spell and get their campaign up and running.

Greece maintained their solid start to the Nations League as they claimed a 1-0 win away to Kosovo on Sunday.

That result was preceded by a similar 1-0 victory over Northern Ireland when the sides squared off in last Thursday’s group opener.

Greece now head home where they are unbeaten in eight of their last nine outings, claiming four wins and four draws in that time.

Cyprus, on the other hand, were denied their first win of the campaign as they were held to a goalless draw by Northern Ireland last time out.

Earlier, they also suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat at the hands of Kosovo in their group opener last Thursday.

Cyprus have now managed just one win from their last 13 games across all competitions since a 1-0 victory over Slovenia in the World Cup qualifiers back in March 2021.


Greece vs Cyprus Head-To-Head

Greece have been imperious in the history of this fixture, claiming 20 wins from the last 30 meetings between the sides. Cyprus have managed just three wins in that time, while seven games have ended all square.
