head to for an away clash in the on Thursday evening, with hoping for a positive result after suffering a Wembley defeat to the same opponent last month. There could well be new players handed a senior bow for the Three Lions this time out, with a total of six now in the squad who are so far uncapped, following a spate of injury withdrawals. Curtis Jones, Lewis Hall and Taylor Harwood-Bellis were the trio originally included this time around without a cap to their name, but at the other end of the scale the likes of Jordan Pickford, Kyle Walker and Harry Kane remain involved - all three with over 70 caps now and the captain past the century mark.
Even so it’ll be an unfamiliar lineup one way or another, with a further nine players in this squad having so far played between once and eight times for England at this level. Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the game. The clash takes place on Thursday 14 November with kick-off set for 7:45pm GMT.
Greece vs England will be screened live on ITV1 and STV. It can be streamed via ITVX on compatible devices, as well as the STV Player. Carsley has already seen several injuries mount up, with right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, centre midfielder Declan Rice and winger Bukayo Saka being the most notable ones from the usual first-choice lineup.
Phil Foden, Levi Colwill, Cole Palmer, Jack Grealish and backup goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale are also all out, meaning Jarrod Bowen and Jarrad Branthwaite were called up as cover along with the uncapped Morgan Rogers and Tino Livramento. The latter pair join James Trafford, Lewis Hall, Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Curtis Jones in hoping to earn a first cap. Branthwaite missed training on Tuesday making him unlikely to feature in this first match, Pickford; Walker, Konsa, Guehi, Lewis; Gallagher, Jones; Madueke, Bellingham, Gordon; Kane Greece 7/2 Draw 41/17 England 1/1 England to bounce back from disappointment last time out and record victory in more pragmatic fashion than they tried last time the sides met.
Greece 1-2 England..
