Competition: UEFA Nations League
Market: Finland win
Odds: 3/1 @ Bet 365
Marching towards promotion, runaway league leaders Finland will travel to Greece fon Thursday night as they look to extend their unbeaten run.
Starting with the hosts, after enduring a hard fought battle in their quest to earn a spot in Russia, Greece are once again struggling with their consistency. Sat six points adrift of their hosts at the top of the table and already suffering a pair of defeats to both Finland and Hungary, the former European champions will also need to improve on their form at the Olympiako Stadio Spyros Louis. Angelos Anastasiadis’ side have now managed to win just two of their last eight matches on home soil.
As for the visitors, arguably turning into this years surprise package, Finland are enjoying nothing short of a stellar start to the new tournament. Coming off the back of beating Greece 2-0 in the reverse fixture last month, Markku Kanerva’s side have now won all four of their opening UEFA Nations League outings. Also now losing just one friendly matchup against Romania in their last 14 matches, a run stemming back to June 2017, it will be their defensive record most impressing Kanerva. Finland have now kept a clean sheet in seven of their last eight matches, the best defensive record in the whole tournament.
