Preview
Greece and Italy face at Olympiako Stadio Spyros Louis, in a match for this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Round). There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 19‑11‑2008, the match ended with the final score: Greece (1‑1) Italy. Greece registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Greece

The home team comes to his 3rd round of Group J in the 2nd position, with 4 points won, after 1 win and 1 draw. In their debut in this group stage they won in an away match against Liechtenstein by (0‑2). In the second round, they tied in an away match against Bosnia‑Herzegovina by (2‑2). This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium.

Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 8 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Greece are second in their group, behind only the mighty Italy, which is their next opponent. In a match to count for the Euro Cup qualifiers. Greece are aware that it will not be an easy game, as it is never easy to face the Italian national team, but they will play next to their fans and this may be an additional motivation to leave the field with victory and solidity in the qualification zone and achieve group leadership. In their last match the Greeks beat Liechtenstein 2-0.

Confirmed Lineup: Vasilis Barkas, Konstantinos Manolas, Dimitrios Siovas, Sokratis, Konstantinos Stafylidis, Kostas Fortounis, Dimitrios Kourbelis, Giorgos Masouras, Zeca, Andreas Samaris, Dimitrios Kolovos.
