Greece vs Belarus: Predictions Preview, Lineups, H2h for September 6, 2025

On September 5, 2025, Greece will take on Belarus in the European qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, starting at 20:45 Central European Time. Here’s a look at the potential winner of this match.

Greece

The Greek national team is in great form heading into their first World Cup 2026 qualifier. In the last Nations League, they played well in League B against England, Ireland, and Finland, winning 5 out of 6 matches, only losing to England. This strong performance helped them secure second place and earn promotion to League A after defeating Scotland in the playoffs.

Recently, Greece has performed consistently, with 8 wins and 2 losses in their last 10 matches, including friendlies. Their qualifying group features Belarus, Scotland, and Denmark, and they have a solid chance to compete for the top spots.

Greece and Belarus have not met in official matches yet. Historically, they’ve played two friendlies, both ending in narrow 1-0 victories for one side.

Belarus

The Belarusian national team enters their first World Cup 2026 qualifier with a tough record. In the Nations League, they competed in League C and finished third in their group against Northern Ireland, Bulgaria, and Luxembourg, remaining in League C. They secured only one win—against Luxembourg—along with four draws and one loss over six matches.

After the Nations League, Belarus played several friendlies, winning three and losing one. However, their official matches reflect a lack of scoring ability: in six Nations League games, both teams only netted two goals, and their last eight official matches ended with fewer than 2.5 goals.

Probable lineups

• Greece: Tzolakis, Tsimikas, Vagiannidis, Mavropanos, Rota, Mouzakitis, Zafeiris, Konstantelias, Tzolis, Karetsas, Pavlidis.
• Belarus: Lapukhov, Gromyko, Ebong, Zabelin, Lisakovich, Martynovich, Melnychenko, Pechenin, Politevich, Pigas, Yablonskiy.

Key facts and head-to-head

• Greece has won 9 of their last 11 matches.
• 4 of Greece’s last 5 matches had over 2.5 goals.
• Greece scored first in 10 of their last 12 games.
• Belarus won 3 of their last 4 matches.
• 6 of Belarus’s last 7 away games ended with under 2.5 goals.

Greece vs Belarus match prediction

Considering the teams’ current form, Greece looks confident and ready to start their World Cup qualifying campaign with a win at home. Belarus hasn’t had official matches recently and struggled in the Nations League, making them the underdogs. A Greece win with a -1.5 handicap at odds of 1.69 is a sensible prediction for this match.
