Greece vs Scotland prediction: EUROPE: World Cup – Qualification betting tips on match 2025-11-14 19:45.
[p]Already guaranteed a top-two spot in World Cup qualification (WCQ) Group C, Scotland continue their quest to finish top when they travel to Greece.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Greece’s latest WCQ campaign has proven to be a disaster, as they’re already eliminated from Group C with two games remaining. A return of three points from four matches (W1, L3) paints a stark picture for the home side, who have lost each of their last three qualifiers since a win on matchday one. Not since 1973 have the hosts endured a longer losing WCQ sequence, and if they’re to avoid a repeat here, they need to seriously improve defensively as they’ve now conceded 3+ goals in each of their last three games, more instances than across their previous 61 games combined![/p]
[p]It’s been a much better campaign for Scotland, who arrive at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium with the sole aim of beating Denmark to top spot. Winning nine of their last 11 WCQ outings (D1, L1), the visitors had to battle from behind to claim one of those victories in the reverse fixture, which is the only instance in their four games in this cycle that they haven’t scored first. Completing a swift H2H double would see Steve Clarke’s men make a little bit of history, as they stand on the brink of going six games unbeaten on their travels (W4, D1 currently), a feat that the Tartan Army haven’t witnessed their side complete since a nine-match streak between September 1999 and April 2001.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]This is the fourth meeting between Greece and Scotland in 2025 (SCO: W2, L1). Both prior H2Hs on Greek soil ended 1-0, with a win apiece for each side. [/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]There’s been a goal scored between the 60th and 65th minutes in all four of Greece’s WCQ games this cycle.[/p]

[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]

[p]Greece are without a number of established stars due to injury, including Konstantinos Mavropanos and Fotis Ioannidis. Scotland arrive here with a near full-strength squad. [/p]
