MATCH PREVIEW

The Olympic Stadium of Athens plays host to a pivotal match in League C of the UEFA Nations League (UNL), as Greece welcome Finland in what will be a straight shootout between the only two sides in the group still eligible for promotion.
For Greece, it is win or bust as they have just two games remaining and a six-point deficit to cut – not to mention a terribly inferior goal difference (Greece: -1, Finland: +5). However, their return of four clean sheets from their last five home matches provides the perfect backdrop.
Needing only a clean sheet to secure League B status, Finland are one of just two sides in the UNL still with a 100% win record after four matches. Additionally, the ‘Huuhkajat’ are one of just four nations (out of 55) in the entire UNL yet to concede a goal.
Overall, the visitors have conceded just three goals this calendar year, returning a record of: W7, D1, L1. Finland’s run of four straight competitive wins (excluding friendlies) ahead of this one is also hard to ignore, given that no Finland side has won five competitive matches in a row since 1994/95.
Players to watch: Konstantinos Mitroglou has scored three goals in Greece’s last five home matches (all games). Teemu Pukki, meanwhile, is top-scorer in the league for his club (Norwich), scoring a brace in each of his last two matches in the Championship.
Stat attack: Three of Greece’s last four home matches have seen a 0-0 scoreline at half-time.
Greece lead the H2H record between the nations (W7, D3, L5), with six of those victories coming on Greek soil.
Seven of Finland’s last eight FIFA or UEFA-sanctioned competitive away matches have produced under 2.5 goals.
