Lee Carsley's England audition has gone pretty much to plan so far and it would be a major surprise if Greece threw a spanner in the works at Wembley tonight.
The interim boss has been handed a kind run of games to press his case for a permanent job with the Three Lions slumming it in the second tier of the UEFA Nations League.
Performances have been good in successive 2-0 wins over Ireland and Finland but the Greeks should be tougher opponents, having also kicked off with two victories over those sides.
England should still have too much firepower though and it will be interesting to see how they shape up with the likes of Jude Bellingham, Cole Palmer and Phil Foden available again.

England vs Greece top betting tips
Jack Grealish was arguably England's best player in Carsley's first two games but might miss out here with Bellingham, Palmer and Foden back to fight it out for that No.10 slot.
Grealish could be shunted out to the left but Anthony Gordon also impressed there against Ireland and Finland. The only forward who looks guaranteed a slot is probably Arsenal's Bukayo Saka on the right flank. He's 13/8 with Betano for anytime scorer and the same firm price him at a tempting 31/10 for an assist.
It took England a while to get going at home to Finland, with both goals coming in the second half. That makes me think backing most strikes to come after the break could pay off here at 21/20 with Betfred.
Finland vs Republic of Ireland top betting tips
While Carsley has got off to a flying start in the dugout, the same can't be said for new Ireland boss Heimir Hallgrimsson who has crashed to defeats in his first two games.
The Irish haven't even scored yet under the Iceland coach and they now have a tricky trip to Finland in the UEFA Nations League.
The Finns have also lost both their games in their group but played relatively well at Wembley before Harry Kane eventually toppled them with a second-half double.
With home advantage they could be worth a punt tonight at 15/8 but I'm expecting a tight game and the half-time draw also appeals, although the odds aren't great at 9/10.
Backing a busy night for the ref could pay off and I like the 6/5 at Bet365 for over 4.5 cards. The midfield battle will be key and a bet builder with the same firm on cards for Glen Kamara and Jason Molumby pays 16/1.
Italy vs Belgium top betting tips
The best game to watch tonight in the UEFA Nations League will probably come in Rome as in-form Italy host Belgium.
After a stunning 3-1 victory in France, the Azzurri saw off Israel 2-1 and are now starting to purr under Luciano Spalletti.
The Belgians are coming off the back of a 2-0 loss to the French and will be without star man Kevin De Bruyne so an Italy win appeals at a best evens with Betfred.
We should see goals as both teams possess plenty of firepower in attack. Combining BTTS and over 2.5 goals pays 49/40 in a Betano bet builder.
Belgian stopper Wout Faes is often prone to a rash challenge so the Leicester man could be worth a punt for a card at 3/1 with Bet365.

Aus do score with a header from a set piece but it’s frustrated Aussie Rules player Lewis Miller who notches it rather than Souttar
a whole 6 corners

First game in the best of 5 WNBA final tonight as Liberty take on the Lynx. I’m expecting a big night from Breanna Stewart for Liberty so I’ll stick with her for my props:
Over 9.5 rebounds 8/11
Over 6.5 Q1 points 8/11
Over 1.5 made 3s 11/10
For something richer you can try 12+ rebounds, 15/8. Although Stewart averaged 8.5 rebounds in the normal season, her games against the Lynx she had 18,17, and 11 so I’m hoping she can find that sort of form.
This is the first time I’m seeing these teams play each other v my previous props where I had already watched the teams play each other in the series, so follow with caution
