Gibraltar are currently rock bottom in Group D having suffered defeats in all the six matches they have played so far. They were against World champions Germany last time out in a match they were humbled 7-0. They will now be against an Ireland side which trails Scotland by just two points, which means a victory for them coupled with a defeat for Scotland will result in them leapfrogging their rivals to third place.
Aston Villa youngster Jack Grealish rejected a call up to the Ireland national side earlier in the year. The 19 year old is eligible to play for both England and Ireland and Martin O'Neill has spoken of the positive talks he has held with the Aston Villa man claiming that he expects the youngster to make a decision soon.
"I had a conversation with him and his father a week or 10 days ago and I thought it was pretty fruitful," the Ireland boss said. "I think he's going to decide very, very shortly on what he'll do but it's a big decision.
"I'm pleased I had the conversation and they were receptive to what I was saying. We're trying to move it forward.
"He would play more often for us. He's a great talent. England, naturally, would qualify for more tournaments than we would but it's not an overnight decision to make at your leisure. This is for the rest of his career at international level but he and his father agreed it's about time they do something about it."
Greece on the other hand are currently rock bottom in Group F, but unlike Gibraltar have managed to pick up two points in the qualifying campaign so far. They were against Group D leaders Poland in a friendly match last time out which finished 0-0.
Greece will have to show the same level of resilience and desire in their upcoming match against Finland who sit just one place above them. Finland have managed just a single victory in the campaign so far which came at the expense of Faroe Islands.
The reverse fixture played between the two sides in November last year ended in a 1-1 draw as Karelis' goal in the 24th minute was cancelled out by a second half goal from Hurme.
