One hundred and five days after the last game of the National Team against Kosovo in the League of Nations, the renewal of the competition finds the Greek team where it left off. 4×4, first place in the group, good examples that the national team showed, victories with zero liabilities in defense and a balanced game in midfield give Gustavo Poyet the right to be loyal to the “team” at this moment. the rule of who wins doesn’t change.”

On the eve of Saturday’s match with Cyprus in Larnaca (21:45), the coach of the national team does not consider it necessary to make any changes either to his favorite 4-3-3 formation or to his squad, despite the fact that he has plenty of options.

In yesterday’s double practice at the Kallithea Stadium, Poyet didn’t show that he would be chasing special surprises. Given the absence of Mandalos and Jakoumakis, who received two yellow cards each in the June games and are available for the next match against Northern Ireland, the most likely line-up will be as follows: under the posts will be Vlachomos, Baldock and Tsimikas on the edges. defense and in the center of Mavropanos and Hatzidiakos. In midfield, the dominant players are Siopis and Kourbelis, Buchalakis is in contention for the position and further forward Bakasetas will play a known loose role. Pelkas and Masouras will probably fight at the ends of the attack, and Duvikas in the center of the attack, since Pavlidis is also missing.

The Uruguayan coach puts a lot of emphasis on one-on-one conversations with the players, capitalizing on the good atmosphere that was also evident during Tuesday night’s rally dinner.
