I'd like to see a diamond midfield. The dead ball delivery against Socceroos was awful. Singh, Bell & Lewis will all improve that.

Wood had like a pitiful 15 touches or something in that game. Obviously a fit Singh will help improve that, but using stereotyping I can see 2 big burly Greek CBs double teaming the Woodsman.

I'd go a diamond midfield, and Waine up top alongside the skipper. Singh to drift wide, but mostly be central, with Libby bombing forward

Crocombe
Payne Boxall Smith Cacace
Bell Stamenic Lewis or McCowatt Singh
Waine Wood

If Wood & Singh are both match fit, plus with Lewis & Bell back - we should expect improvement from what was a pretty toothless display against Australia. Helps that Greece & Ireland are according to the FIFA rankings anyway, a bit weaker than the Socceroos.
