Lithuania vs Romania Preview 


Lithuania haven’t won a single point in the group, while Romania could make a giant step towards promotion with a win in Kaunas. The Tricolours beat this opponent in September, and I will back them to do it again. In-form Razvan Marin is also tipped to score.

Lithuania are sitting at the bottom of their Nations League C group after losing all three encounters so far. 

They welcomed Cyprus in the opening match and lost 1-0 despite having 1.41-0.51 expected goals, 58% possession and 12-6 shots.  

The Yellow and Greens looked solid in the second round match at Romania, holding them to a 1-1 draw (Armandas Kucys on target in the first half) until 88th minute then conceding twice to lose the game 3-1. 

Third consecutive loss was recorded on Saturday night against Kosovo 2-1 at home, Paulius Golubickas scoring a late consolation goal.

Verdict

Romania are in red-hot form right now, claiming three wins in a row. Lithuania lost 11 of their last 12 matches to this opponent, so I’d say that away win to nil is the best bet. Romania’s Razvan Marin has scored in every Nations League match so far, making him a likely candidate to find the net.
