England represents a significant clash in Group B, particularly as England seeks to avenge their recent loss to Greece. In their last encounter, England suffered a surprising 2-1 defeat, which has heightened the stakes for this penultimate fixture of the 2024/25 season . As they prepare for this match, England finds itself three points behind Greece and in urgent need of victory to maintain hopes of securing the top spot in their group.
