Greece vs Belarus Prediction (05.09.2025)

Greece has 9 wins in its last 11 matches. The team has been on the rise lately, as seen in the Nations League, climbing for the first time to the top League A. In their last three matches alone, they scored 11 goals, although two of them were friendlies in June, where they defeated Slovakia at home 4:1 and Bulgaria 4:0. So the Greeks are definitely hopeful that the team can return to the World Cup finals next year.

Belarus does not have such reasons for joy and pride as their opponent. Excluding a few friendlies this year, Belarus has struggled to score goals, which is also the reason for having six consecutive matches with under 2.5 goals. However, they did find the net in their last match, which was not a friendly, as they drew 1:1 against Bulgaria.

Greece is making progress and has recorded some good victories lately. Belarus is also a completely manageable opponent. I expect a victory with a clean sheet and a score of two or three to nil for the Greeks here.

Greece and Belarus begin the qualifiers on the road to World Cup 2026. The two teams meet in Athens in the opening duel of the group.

The "Hellenes" are favorites

The performances of the Greek team over the last year and a half are impressive, and considering the competition in this group, it is expected that the team will have quite good chances of reaching the finals in the USA and Canada. Belarus is the underdog, and although this squad can sometimes put up a fight, they are unlikely to expect anything more than a respectable defeat away. There will only be 6 matches in this group, so the Greeks cannot afford a weak start.

Bet on goal/goals - No and 2:0 exact score

I think the hosts will take an economical but trouble-free victory.
