Μake us preferred on Google Greece is one step away from one of the biggest qualifications in its modern history. On Friday night, November 13, the national team faces the Netherlands at Amsterdam’s Johan Cruijff ArenA in the UEFA Nations League.
This is Greece’s first campaign in League A, a place it earned with a 3-0 playoff win over Scotland at Hampden Park in March 2025, and the team has already made its mark. Ivan Jovanovic’s side is unbeaten after four matchdays, with two wins and two draws, and shares first place in Group 2 with the Netherlands on eight points. Germany is third with five, and Serbia has yet to earn a point.
The 2-2 draw with the Oranje in Thessaloniki, where Greece led 2-0 at halftime, showed that the team can stand up to opponents with far richer traditions. The 1-0 win in Augsburg, Greece’s first ever over Germany, proved it again. A goalless draw against the Germans at Toumba followed.
Now the stakes are even higher. A top-two finish guarantees a quarterfinal spot in March 2027. That would be a huge chance for Greece to confirm its progress and establish itself among Europe’s elite.
Kickoff is at 9:45 p.m. Greek time, live on Alpha TV and on NovaSports Start.
