Germany will look to avenge their shock UEFA Nations League defeat to Greece when the two teams meet again in a rematch.
Greece condemned Germany to a 1-0 loss in Jurgen Klopp’s first home game in charge last Sunday, but bounced back with victory over Serbia on Thursday.
Greece are the surprise leaders of Group 2 in League A, and were only denied a third win from three by a late Tijjani Reijnders equaliser in their 2-2 draw with the Netherlands.
