The national team faces Finland in Helsinki with the aim of winning to claim the top spot in the Nations League group. Ivan Jovanovic’s plan for the big match.
The national team wants to end their course in the current Nations League in an ideal way and leave with the three points from Finland (17/11, 19:00, NOVA Sports Prime and Alpha, LIVE SPORT24), a team that has never beaten at home, even though they have played eight times.
The blue and white comes from the 3-0 defeat by England, which landed them unevenly and now the claim of the first place is not in their hands, since all three lions who at the same time host Ireland at Wembley, have the upper hand in the tie.
Ivan Jovanovic had discussions with his players in the time between the two games (after all, there wasn’t much time for preparation) in order to present themselves ready for the next game and he expressed his confidence that they will do so.
In relation to the game against England, Fotis Ioannidis has been knocked out due to discomfort and did not travel to Helsinki. On the contrary, Kourbelis, who served his punishment due to cards in the previous match, is now available and is expected to get a starting jersey. Out is Christos Zafeiris, who completed cards with England, despite all that he has traveled normally with the mission to Helsinki.
The possible eleven of the National team against Finland
The number (up to three) of Ivan Jovanovic’s changes (as he kept his cards closed) is expected to be small in relation to the game against England, with one of them being forced.
Vlachodimos will be kept under the posts, while Mavropanos and Koulierakis are expected to remain in the center of the defense. Rota will remain at the right end of the defense, while on the left Giannoulis claims the position from Tsimikas and there may be a change here.
Kourbelis will return to the original formation with Siopis as his partner. Mandalos is also claiming a position in the center, while Mouzakitis and Alexandropoulos are also available midfielders. The midfield trio is expected to remain the same with Bakaseta, Joli and Masura expected to be the same.
Pavlidis will remain at the top, since Ioannidis is not available to claim the position.
