Match Preview
Lithuania return home knowing victory would secure progress to the second phase of the World Cup 2027 qualifiers, while Great Britain are trying to keep their slim qualification hopes alive. The hosts remain favorites, but their campaign has been far from straightforward.
Lithuania Looking to Secure Qualification
Lithuania are in a strong position to advance, but performances in Group D have not been as convincing as expected. Their campaign opened with a dramatic 89-88 victory over Great Britain on the road after completing one of their biggest comebacks in recent years.
That success was followed by disappointing back-to-back defeats, first falling short against Italy 82-81 before suffering another narrow setback against Iceland 86-85.
The Green and Yellows responded well in Round 4 by crushing Iceland 99-82 in front of the home crowd. Lithuania dominated defensively by forcing 17 turnovers, while Ignas Brazdeikis led the scoring with 27 points.
Great Britain Tagged Underdog
Great Britain enter the fifth round bottom of Group D after winning just once in four games, and in theory one win from the remaining two matches could be enough for the next phase.
They came within one point of upsetting Lithuania in the opening round before losing 89-88, then picked up their only victory by beating Iceland 90-84 in Reykjavik. Carl Wheatle played a huge role in that result with 22 points and 10/15 FG shooting.
The last two rounds brought difficult assignments against Italy and the gap in quality showed, with Great Britain losing 93-57 at home before putting up more resistance in a 84-75 defeat on the road.

Verdict
Lithuania remain clear favorites and should have enough quality to collect the win, but they have rarely looked dominant throughout these qualifiers. Great Britain already pushed them to the limit once, so backing the visitors in a +17.5 handicap looks like the best value option.
