Seeking to quickly brush aside their disappointment from the UEFA Nations League, Netherlands play host to Greece at the Philips Stadion in Eindhoven in a Euro 2024 qualifier on Thursday evening.

While the Oranje have picked up three points from their opening two fixtures in Group B, Piratiko have accumulated six points from their first three matches.
Since replacing Louis van Gaal in January, Koeman has suffered three defeats in his opening four games of his second spell in charge of the Netherlands, including a 4-0 drubbing against Group B leaders France in their first Euro 2024 qualifier in March.
The Oranje then, as expected, secured a comfortable win over Gibraltar in their second qualifier, beating the European minnows 3-0 on home soil, but that was followed by back-to-back defeats in the UEFA Nations League to Croatia and Italy in June.
Koeman's side missed out on progression to the final on Dutch soil after losing 4-2 against Croatia, before suffering a 3-2 defeat against Italy in the third-place playoff, setbacks that highlighted frailties in the Oranje backline.
Netherlands can ill-afford to show signs of weakness in their upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Greece and Republic of Ireland – two matches that they will be expected to win – but returning to winning ways against the former on Thursday is not a given, as they have lost their last two meetings with Piratiko by an aggregate score of 5-2.
