France
France is coming into this game from a 3-0 win against Gibraltar, giving them confidence that they could extend their run in the group. Goals from Olivier Giroud, Kylian Mbappe, and Aymen Mouelhi helped France to secure the win. As they are sitting at the top of their group right now, they are hoping to extend their lead with a win here. It is not impossible though considering how talented they are as a team. In fact, over the past years, they have always been the favorites to win International matches. Although some of their veterans have stepped out of the international stage or retire, they still have the younger ones. The younger members of their squad emerged to be as talented as their veterans. However, they still cannot be too confident in this match, as they are going against a dangerous team as well.
Mike Maignan remains to be a doubt in this match, after he complained a calf issue even before their previous match. Moreover, they will be without Ferland Mendy, and Adrien Rabiot, who are both suffering from their injuries as well.
Greece

It was Anastasios Bakasetas, and Georgios Masouras who helped Greece to seal their win, while the lone goal from Ireland is from Nathan Collins. Considering that they are sitting at the second of their group, Greece is eager to win here to steal the top spot. Just like their opponents, Greece also have the talent that will help them to qualify in 2024 Euro. They have Kostas Tsimikas, and Odysseas Vlachodimos, who have been doing wonders for the Greeks.
