Latest England vs Greece team information
Ezri Konsa, Morgan Gibbs-White and Kobbie Mainoo have withdrawn from the national team through injury, while Harry Kane has been cleared to return from injury at Bayern Munich. Kane's absence could open the door for Ollie Watkins or Dominic Solanke, who has been called up for the first time in seven years, to play against Finland on Thursday.
Carsley's squad also sees the return of Kyle Walker, Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham and Cole Palmer, all of whom were unavailable in September for various reasons. However, Walker may have to make way at right-back for Trent Alexander-Arnold.
While England are worried about Kane's fitness, Greece have also suffered a major blow as Ioannidis was injured against Olympiacos and will not be involved. Vangelis Pavlidis, who scored 80 goals in three seasons with AZ Alkmaar, will shoulder the attacking duties for the team.
In addition, Newcastle United goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos has been a forgotten name since leaving Benfica, but is expected to be given the chance to start for Greece in the upcoming match with the number 45 shirt.

Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Guehi, Colwill, Lewis; Rice, Bellingham; Saka, Palmer, Grealish; Watkins

Latest football commentary England vs Greece
Interim boss Lee Carsley has faced frequent questions about his ability to keep his place in the starting line-up, but he has always managed to avoid them. The former Republic of Ireland international has had a flying start, seeing former team-mates Declan Rice and Jack Grealish help his team to victory over Ireland on their debuts.
Harry Kane then reached the 100th cap mark with two goals against Finland, helping the Three Lions to back-to-back 2-0 wins. Despite finishing second, Carsley is aware that failing to top the group and return to League A will have a major impact on his career.
If he continues to be successful, Carsley could become the first manager in history to lead the Three Lions to three wins without conceding a goal. However, he faces a big test from Greece, who are top of Group 2 and have won 13 of their Nations League games, showing impressive form with victories over Finland and Ireland.
Greece are looking for their 14th win under new coach Ivan Jovanovic, who replaced Gus Poyet. Jovanovic is under pressure to end a run of 12 games without a win against top five sides since winning Euro 2004. David Beckham scored the winner against Greece in 2001, and England are unbeaten in their last nine meetings.
Despite missing Fotis Ioannidis, Greece still have the likes of Vangelis Pavlidis and Tasos Bakasetas to create chances. However, they have also struggled to score against England, failing to score in seven of their last nine games. With their attacking prowess, England should be able to maintain Carsley's impressive start to life at Wembley.
