International football returns this week, with England hosting Greece at Wembley. While this isn’t the first bout of England matches since last summer’s Euro 2024 final (England already beat Finland and Ireland back in September), it’s arguably the Three Lions’ most highly anticipated game since then.
Greece currently sit above England in the Nations League table – and a win would send England top. This game is part of England’s Nations League campaign, which could lead to qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
The game is on Thursday October 10 – here’s everything you need to know about watching it, from kick-off time to the teams’ head-to-head history.
