Greece vs Ireland Prediction & Betting Tips (13 October)

Incredible coup from the Greeks last Thursday with a victory at Wembley against England in the match for 1st place in group 1-2. Greece has a total of 9 points in three matches following its success in September against Ireland on the road 0-2, and easily at home against Finland 3-0. Quite honestly, if the Hellenes manage to win their next two matches before hosting England, promotion, although unexpected after the draw, will clearly be possible. We must therefore not waste this opportunity now. In addition, Greece has revenge to take after its non-qualification for the Euro, defeat on penalties against Georgia in the play-off.

Ireland already seems forced to settle for 3rd place and avoid direct relegation without going through the roadblocks. Indeed, with 3 points, it is difficult to see the Irish passing in front of the English at the end of the 6 days especially since they lost against the two group favorites Greece and England at home last month by the same score each time 0-2. The positive point is that against Finland last Thursday on the road, the Irish brought back three important points in a 1-2 victory in order to also put an end to a negative series of three successive defeats, the first two mentioned last month, including one in friendly in June against Portugal 3-0.

Author of a double against Greece and a hat-trick but rightly refused by the VAR (offside), Pavlidis is a threat, having scored 29 goals in 34 Eredivisie matches with Alkmaar last year ( Benfica today). The important Bakasetas (Panathinaikos), Tzolis (Club Bruges), and even Masouras (Olympiakos) are present and starting against the English at Wembley. Author of 7 goals last season with Celta Vigo in La Liga, Douvikas started on the bench and did not even come on against the Three Lions, and could therefore have playing time this evening. Remember that boys like Bouchalakis (Hertha Berlin, 47 sel), Galanopoulos (AEK Athens), and Alexandropoulos (Standard de Liège) were not called up by the coach. Compared to September, certain players were not invited for this internship like Doherty (Wolverhampton, choice), Jake O'Brien (Everton), captain Coleman (Everton, injured), Browne (Sunderland, 5 goals in 37 seasons), Smallborne (Southampton) and Callum Robinson (Cardiff, 9 goals in 38 caps), without forgetting the unfortunate starting goalkeeper Bazunu (Southampton, 22 sel) who suffers from an injury which keeps him away from the green rectangles for the moment.

Decisive with the goal and pass against Finland, Robbie Brady (Preston, 10 goals in 67 caps) was one of the main architects of the success last Thursday. To go through the presences, let's talk about Ferguson (Brighton), the Ipswich residents: Ogbene, O'Shea, the Szmodics midfielder, and Jack Taylor (no playing time against Finland). We don't forget to mention Leicester player Kesey McAteer (6 goals in the Championship last year) who suffers from having less playing time this season in the PL.
