Lithuania vs Malta prediction

After the first couple of international breaks in UEFA qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Lithuania and Malta sit as the bottom two in Group G, which is a group that consists of Finland, an extremely strong and impressive Netherlands side, as well as an almost seemingly always stagnating Polish side.

In their three qualifiers thus far, the Lithuanians have collected just two points with their three matches having consisted of just five goals. Malta were most recently hammered 8-0 by that Dutch team. The Maltese have failed to score thus far, and they have collected just a point from their four qualifiers.

Neither side have much by way of quality, albeit the visitors have shown some cohesion and improvement, but the likelihood is simply a low-scoring clash for this one in Vilnius.

Lithuania vs Malta tip: Under 2.5 goals
