For the 6th and last matchday of Group B of the C division of the Nations League, Greece welcomes Northern Ireland. The group is completed by Kosovo and Cyprus, the former is promoted to the B category while two teams from the bottom four of the respective groups are relegated through play offs to the D category.
First bad result for Greece in the group after 5 matches, on Saturday night they were defeated in Larnaca by Cyprus 1-0. He entered strongly in the first quarter of the match and had 1-2 moments to open the score, but not only did he not score, but in the 18th minute he was behind in the score. Afterwards, she was unable to react, perhaps influenced by the lack of motivation, and as time passed she accepted her defeat.
This was Greece's first loss of points in the group, however first place is assured and today she wants to close her obligations with another victory in front of her audience.
Great win for Northern Ireland on Saturday afternoon, they beat Kosovo 2-1. In the first hour of the match, the visitors were better and rightly found themselves in front of the score in the 58th minute, but the continuation belonged to Northern Ireland and with a goal in the 82nd minute and in the last minute of stoppage time, they achieved the big upset.
With this victory Northern Ireland stayed alive in the battle it is fighting to avoid the last place in the group, after 5 matches they are in 3rd place with 5 points as well as Cyprus but are superior in a possible tie. So tonight, a draw or at least the same result as Cyprus is enough for her.
The motivation in today's match is one-sided as Northern Ireland is the one who wants the points. However, Greece excels in quality, has left a good impression and I think that after the defeat in Cyprus, they would like to close the group with another three points.
Proposal: Greece - Northern Ireland 1 with an output of 2.24
