NOTES
- There are currently 35 places between Ireland (26) and Greece (61) in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings.

- Four players in the current squad (Katie McCabe, Denise O’Sullivan, Leanne Kiernan & Amber Barrett) featured in the last visit to Greece in November 2019, where Amber Barrett scored in the 1-1 draw in Athens.

- Amber Barrett could earn her 50th cap should she feature in the game – which would make her the sixth player in current squad to reach that milestone.
