Lithuania vs Bulgaria Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 17th June 2023
At S. Darius & S. Girenas, Lithuania and Bulgaria meet to play a third round European Championship qualifying match this coming Saturday. Lithuania triumphed in a 3-1 win against Bulgaria, the last time they faced off. However, Bulgaria secured a 1-0 win in the match before that.
Concluding the first two rounds of matches in this group, Lithuania have positioned themselves as number four on zero points. Meanwhile, Bulgaria earned zero points, placing them as number five. Lithuania head to their upcoming match as number 146 in the FIFA world ranking. Meanwhile, there is a pretty big gap to upcoming opponents Bulgaria. They enter the game ranked number 76 in the world.
Lithuania could perhaps, and it is a big perhaps, collect a few points in the group if all the stars align. The most likely scenario though will be for them to finish last in the group. It would be a surprise if Bulgaria were to advance beyond the qualifying group stage considering their status as big underdogs to make it to the next stage.
Lithuania vs Bulgaria Prediction
Lithuania Form
Lithuania only added a single point to their account in their last three games, where they lost 2-0 and 2-0 against Estonia and Serbia respectively. At least they managed a 0-0 draw with Greece. Lithuania didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six internationals. They have a record of two draws and four defeats, in which they conceded 12 and scored six goals.
Bulgaria Form
A draw is all that prevents Bulgaria from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They claimed a point in a 0-0 draw against Luxembourg before getting trounced against Montenegro by a 0-1 score. Last time out, more disappointment followed as Hungary ran out 3-0 winners. Bulgaria won three of a possible six internationals, as well as playing one draw and suffering two defeats. They scored eight while also conceding five times.
Form looks slightly more in favour of Bulgaria than odds suggests. We believe the bookmakers have placed a little too much faith in Lithuania and we like the prices on offer for the away win.
Lithuania have not won any of their last 11 games in a row.
Bulgaria's last four matches had less than 1.5 goals.
