On Friday, at 19:45, Greece will receive the visit of the Hungarian selected, in a duel counting for the 3rd round of the League of Nations. The match will take place on “Olympic Stadium of Athens” Spiros Louis “in Athens.
The calculations are terribly complicated in Group 2 of League C.
Whoever is able to beat anyone, maybe except Estonia. That’s how the second league in League C looks after the first two rounds of the League of Nations. Finland is the leader in the hierarchy, with 6 points out of 6 possible, having the great merit of beating Hungary in Tampere in the inaugural round with the score of 1-0. However, the Hungarians did not get out and, three days later, in Budapest, in a game played without spectators, defeated the group’s favorite, Greece, with a score of 2-1, complicating terribly the calculations in this group . Now, just a month away, Greece and Hungary meet again, in a match from which the selected one that would have the most to win could be Finland again, if it is imposed in front the modest representative of Estonia. Hellenes have the duty to impose themselves in front of their own fans in front of a Hungarian team that has not shown much until now, but which, here, has become a serious thorn in the coast of Michael Skibbe’s selection.
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a balanced deployment of hostilities. Although Greece will have the support of its own public and will also have the motivation to indulge in a team that complicated its mission on the way to the head of the group, Hungary is not a representative of underestimation. The success of the tour was not a random one, and we believe that the Hungarians will also present themselves in Athens as a well-organized band with a well-intentioned goal.
PREDICTION: Greece to win @ 1.75
