Greece faces lineup uncertainty for Nations League match against Serbia

The Greek national football team, managed by Ivan Jovanovic, is finalizing preparations for its final Nations League match against Serbia, scheduled for November 16 at the Panthessaliko Stadium in Volos. The squad is dealing with significant injury setbacks that have forced last-minute adjustments to the roster.

Midfielder Dimitris Kourbelis has been ruled out of the contest due to ongoing muscle complaints, following his absence in the previous match against the Netherlands. During the final training session, forward Fotis Ioannidis and winger Christos Tzolis both left the field prematurely after experiencing discomfort. Subsequent medical evaluations confirmed that while Tzolis is fit and available for selection following a clean MRI scan, Ioannidis is unlikely to participate in the upcoming fixture. Conversely, the team will see the return of Christos Zafeiris, who is back in the squad after completing a suspension.

The final composition of the team will be confirmed on the morning of the match as the coaching staff monitors the players' recovery. These roster changes present a tactical challenge for Greece as they aim to secure a positive result in their concluding Nations League group stage game.
