Greece take on the neighbors Cyprus in the round 2 match of qualification for the World Cup 2018. The match will be played at Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium (Piraeus) on Friday, October 7th.
Greece national team failed qualification to Euro 2016 and they should definitely improve this time as it’s hard to finish the last in the group once again when you have opponents like Cyprus, Gibraltar and Estonia in the group. The hosts started this qualification with confident away 4-1 win over Gibraltar. Greece are currently on three-match winning streak after they’ve defeated Australia, Netherlands (both 2-1) and Gibraltar.

Cyprus were showing quite solid results few years ago and it appeared the team may become competitive but their recent results nothing but a big disappointment. Cyprus played nine matches in 2015-16, losing seven of them and taking two wins. The team is currently on four-match losing streak, including 0-3 home loss to Belgium on the first match of the qualification campaign.
Greece and Cyprus national team played five head-to-heads before and four of them ended win wins of today’s hosts. Poor results of Cyprus and awful level of football they show leave them almost no chances to take second win over Greece, who appeared to become competitive once again.
Prediction for the match: Greece to win.
