FINLAND vs. GREECE Live Stream FREE Online: 2016 Euro Cup Qualifier from Helsinki, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

The chase for the 2016 European Cup will take its next step on Saturday. Two teams attempting to qualify for the tournament will do battle in a match between Finland and Greece. The contest scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET will be held at Olympic Stadium in Helsinki and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on Fox Sports 2.

Greece head coach Claudio Ranieri had this to offer on what Greece must work on ahead of today's European qualifier (via UEFA): "First of all, physical fitness. I hope my players have had the chance to play for their clubs. That is another thing: Not all my players are starters for their clubs, but they will have better physical fitness so that is the basis."

"We know Finland are familiar opposition for Greece," he added. "I remember the first match [as Greece coach] for Otto Rehhagel, who went on to win the EURO in 2004, they lost 5-1 to Finland. They have been always a difficult team for Greece."
