The Blue Samurai will be hoping to bounce back from their defeat against Ivory Coast with a victory against Greece.

Despite taking the lead through Honda's excellent strike in their last game, Japan went onto to concede two goals in the space of 99 seconds, a feat they will not want to repeat this time round.

Greece will still want to prove that they are more than this tournaments whipping boys, especially after they did little to dispel the opinion after their 3-0 defeat to Colombia in their opening fixture.

A must win game for both sides.
