- After a shaky display in the opener, keeper Chalkias' place in the starting XI could come under threat from Sifakis.
- Avraam Papadopoulos' tournament is sadly already over after he returned to Greece having torn the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee against Poland.
- His starting defensive partner Sokratis is suspended after a somewhat harsh dismissal in the first half of Friday's match, meaning youngster Kyriakos Papadopoulos may be partnered by veteran midfielder Katsouranis in defence.
- Salpingidis will surely start after an excellent goalscoring cameo against the co-hosts, while Fourtounis will also hope to feature.
- The Czech's have no fresh injury concerns going into Tuesday's game but will have been hurt by a crushing 4-1 defeat to Russia on the opening day.
- Goalscorer Vaclav Pilar was impressive despite the defeat and will keep his place on the left wing.
- Elsewhere the likes of Petrzela and Hubschmann will hope to start in place of Rezek and Jiracek, while Pekhart, Lafata and Necid are waiting in the wings if Milan Baros is dropped.
Jiracek - man of the match.
Greece: Most boring/worst team of this tournament!
