Northern Ireland vs Lithuania Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in World Cup Prediction
Northern Ireland welcomes Lithuania to Windsor Park in Belfast for this World Cup Group C encounter. The home team sits in fourth position with five points while the visitors are in fifth position and have just three points. Northern Ireland have played six games while their opponents have played seven matches. The hosts are out of the running for any of the qualifying spots due to their poor form especially at home where they haven’t won a match. Both their home fixtures ended in goalless draws. Their biggest problem has been the lack of goals scoring just five goals in six matches. They are yet to score a goal at home. They have just one win in their last ten home matches with four draws and five losses. The last win at home was against Luxembourg in a friendly back in 2019.
Lithuania are coming into this match on the back of a crushing 4-0 loss to Switzerland in their last match.They have had a horror run of results with just one win from their last eleven competitive matches. In their qualifying campaign, they have not fared much better accumulating just three points from a win against Bulgaria. They have lost their other six qualifying matches. Lithuania have lost their three away matches conceding seven goals and failing to find the net in any of the matches. They have long since been out of the running for World Cup qualification but can try to leave the foot of the table with victory.
