Greece hosts Armenia in round 4 of Euro Qualification. The match will be played on Tuesday, June 11th at Olympic Stadium of Athens "Spiros Louis" (Athens)
Greece has a number of difficulties in this century, because the Greeks managed to advance to only one World Championship out of two (World Championship 2014 in Brazil), and some of their matches were simply included in folklore (for example, a defeat to the Faroe Islands). Sometimes it seems that something mystical surrounds this team, because, for example, Claudio Ranieri achieved terrible results with the Greeks (the match with the Faroe Islands was just at his helm), but then Leicester called him – and...
In the Nations League, the Greeks did not perform very expressively again, although the group, I must say, was a very strong one: Hungary, Finland and Estonia - high competition, and every match plays a huge role, therefore Greece’s nine points were not enough even for the second place.

However, Greece is moving so far without surprises and fatal misfires in the current qualification - it did not try is fate in the match with Andorra (2:0 victory) and managed not to lose in the match with the main competitor in the fight for second place (a 2:2 draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina).
As for Armenia, it obviously doesn’t delight its fans. Of course, we can’t call its results in the Nations League terrible (ten points in six games), but the defeat from Gibraltar with a 0:1 score could glorify both teams all over the world.
Things are even worse in the current qualification, and it is unlikely that Armenia will fight for promotion to Euro 2020, because it lost the matches to its direct competitors (a defeat to Finland with a 0:2 score and a loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina with a 1:2 score).
If Greece dreams of promoting to the European Championship 2020, it should not lose points in such matches. Sometimes some teams lose the opportunity to compete for anything in such matches, and not in matches with more formidable opponents. I think the Greek national team is well aware of this, so the Greeks will be very concentrated in the upcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Greece to win
