Belarus vs Lithuania Prediction & Betting tips
After Belarus missed the qualification for the EM 2021, at least the promotion to group B of the UEFA Nations League should succeed. For the Belarusians it would even be a march through. In the first edition, they won group D2 and are currently the leader of the table in the fifth matchday of group C4. With an away win, Lithuania would move to first place.
In the run-up to the game between Belarus and Lithuania, the odds of the bookmakers clearly point towards the home team, as the odds comparison of the betting base reveals.
The fact that the Lithuanian national soccer team was only able to win one of their ten competitive games in the Nations League and also failed in the European Championship qualifying 2021 with only one of 24 possible points as the bottom of the group has to be taken into account. As a result, the guests come to Minsk as clear outsiders.
So it makes the most sense to follow the assessment of the bookies and play tip 1 in Belarus against Lithuania. More betting recommendations for this competition for national teams are available in the “Nations League betting tips” section.
Belarus:
The Belarusian national soccer team has been competing in UEFA and FIFA competitions as an independent nation since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The footballers known as Bielyia kryly (in English: the white wings) have not yet achieved any success.
Belarus took part in qualifying rounds for world championships six times and failed there just as regularly as in qualifications for European championships. In Group C, there was only one win out of eight games against Germany, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland and Estonia.
Nevertheless, Mikhail Markhel’s team could briefly hope for a debut in a big final. As the winner of the Nations League Group D2, in which Belarus remained unbeaten in all six games and without conceding a goal, Bielyia went kryly into the playoffs.
In the semifinals, however, the Belarusians had to accept a 0-1 away defeat in Georgia on October 8, 2020, which prematurely broke their dreams of the European Championship. There is already the certainty that the next big tournament will take place without Belarus.
At least in the UEFA Nations League, the next coup is still possible for Mikhail Markhel’s squad. After the flawless promotion from League D, the journey could now go straight to League B. At the moment, the Bielyia kryly finally lead group C4. Only the home game against Albania has been lost so far.
From the other three games, the Belarusian national soccer team got seven out of nine possible points, which is what it is now time to build on. In view of the strong balance sheet in this competition, there is now much to suggest that Tip 1 will work out against Lithuania against Belarus.
Lithuania :
The Lithuanian national soccer team shares its fate with Belarus. In 1940 the Baltic state was occupied by the Soviet Union, for which players born in Lithuania competed up to and including 1990. Only since the collapse of the Soviet Union has Lithuania returned to the UEFA and FIFA competitions as an independent nation.
However, the Rinktine (in German: the national team) has not yet achieved any success. Lithuania has also missed the leap to a finals in every single World Cup and European Championship qualification so far. A Lithuanian selection was only involved in the 1924 Summer Olympics.
In the end, the Rinktine was anything but fame. In the EM qualification in 2021, the Lithuanian national soccer team could hardly have failed even more brutally. In Group B, they finished fifth behind the Ukraine, Portugal, Serbia and the football dwarf Luxembourg.
Lithuania scored only one draw and even lost the away game in Luxembourg with 1: 2. The outsiders only got one of 24 possible points with 5:24 goals. That says a lot about the condition of the team.
In Group C4, the Rinktine lost all six games against Serbia, Romania and Montenegro with 3:16 goals and was only not relegated because of the restructuring of the competition.
An increase can nevertheless be seen. Group C4 currently has five out of twelve possible points and in the friendly against the Faroe Islands on Wednesday evening, Lithuania remained unbeaten in their fifth international match in a row. Nevertheless, the men from Valdas Urbonas come to Minsk as clear outsiders.
