What version of Greece will Scotland face at Hampden?
"Scotland supporters who watched their team be torn apart by a young Greece side at Hampden in March would have been forgiven for reacting with disbelief as the same team were themselves dismantled by Denmark in September. This was a Danish side who, only a few nights earlier, had struggled to create a meaningful opportunity against the Scots in Copenhagen."
"On the night, the Danes snuffed out the threat of Kostas Karetsas, Giannis Konstantelias and Christos Tzolis. All three had tormented the Scots at Hampden, with all three scoring. Captain Andy Robertson, in particular, was given a tough time by the 17-year-old Karetsas on his first start. The Genk winger came on for his debut in the first-leg defeat by Scotland, helping turn the tide in the second half as Steve Clarke's side somewhat fortunately emerged with a 1-0 victory."
Scotland supporters who saw their team lose to a young Greece side at Hampden in March were surprised when Greece were themselves dismantled 3-0 by Denmark in September. Denmark had struggled to create chances against Scotland in Copenhagen yet scored three in Athens after Greece had earlier beaten Belarus 5-1. The Greek squad contains talented youngsters such as Kostas Karetsas, Giannis Konstantelias and Christos Tzolis, who troubled Scotland at Hampden. Karetsas made a notable debut in the first-leg defeat, has since drawn increased attention, and trained on Wednesday despite earlier illness reports.
