I think it's going to depend on the context of the war.  There's no automatic favourites here.

Greece currently cannot afford even a Macedonian phalanx, let alone an army.

How did Greece win independence from the Turks? ;)

I find it incredibly unlikely Greece would start a war with Turkey under current conditions so I would most certainly be rooting for Greece against Erdogan aggression. Turkey is a much larger country for all that matters in today's warfare.

Whatever it takes to retake Constantinople.

More people live in that city presently than live in the entire nation of Greece. Probably not happening :P

Proxy war on Cyprus?  :secret:

It really depends on the circumstances.  Who shoots first, who provokes who, what weapons and tactics are being used, etc.  I mean if Greece launches a surprise attack on Istanbul by dropping biological weapons there, I'll root for Turkey.
