Greece haven't been to a major tournament in more than a decade, but they have the chance to contest for one now. In the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, they are drawn in Group C, where they start off with a home match against Belarus. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
A strong run of form coming into these qualifiers should have the home fans confident. The hosts are on three straight wins ahead of this game and have lost just twice in the last 11.
In each of their last three matches, Greece scored at least three times, while they’ve kept three clean sheets in their last five outings.
The latest of Belarus’ outings was a game against Russia, which they lost 4-1. That defeat brought to an end a run of three straight wins. Though these wins came against much weaker opposition, Belarus will feel inspired, having also beaten Greece the last time they faced off.
That, however, was nine years ago, and much has changed since. Such changes include a failure to beat a top 50 nation since that 2016 win. The visitors also have a poor record in World Cup qualification, losing 11 of the last 12 such matches.
The dream of participating in the World Cup for the first time is dependent on breaking such a run.

Greece had seven wins in their last 10 matches at home, and overall they’ve only lost twice in 11 games, winning the rest. This is a run strong enough to build the hosts’ confidence as they start the qualifiers. Another point of strength should be their scoring form, Ethniki having netted at least three goals in each of their last three matches.
Belarus will also feel capable of leaving Greece with something in the bag, and three wins in their last four matches will be a point of reference here. Our prediction for Greece v Belarus is for Greece to win and over 2.5 goals.
