England v Lithuania Betting Preview
There should no alarms and no surprises on England’s return to the international scene. They entertain Lithuania in a Euro 2016 Group E qualification match, and with Roy Hodgson’s men having already taken four wins from four, a game against a slumping Lithuania side shouldn’t snap their 100% record so far.

England v Lithuania Betting Tips
It is England’s first game back together since their friendly in Scotland towards the back end of last year. It is a comfortable fixture for them to return too as well after having made such a positive start to Euro 2016 qualification, winning all four matches played so far. This should be another maximum points haul for them. England have actually won their last six games in a row, their four Euro 2016 qualifiers sandwiched in between friendly triumphs over Norway and Scotland. The Three Lions have scored eleven goals in their four qualifiers so far, and have conceded just the one.
England’s two games at Wembley in the group produced a 3-1 win over second placed Slovenia and a 5-0 win over San Marino. Daniel Sturridge misses with an injury, but England still have great options with Raheem Sterling, Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck and new call up Harry Kane. If Hodgson can get all of them clicking, then England’s attacking future is in good hands, especially when Sturridge is back too. Would run with Rooney as a 3/1 First Goalscorer option as he has scored seven in his last eight England games. With Harry Kane unlikely to get the start, he is better value at 4/5 in the anytime goalscorer market.
As for Danny Welbeck, he is the Euro 2016 qualifiers joint top goalscorer with five goals so far and heavily trusted by the boss. England and Lithuania have never met before, and it was Lithuania who along with England, came out of the blocks firing with two wins in their opening two qualification games, beating San Marino and Estonia. However, defeats against Slovenia and Switzerland and then a 0-0 draw in a friendly against the Ukraine has seen their bubble burst. They have failed to score in any of their last three matches played and shouldn’t pose too much of a threat to the Three Lions at Wembley.

England v Lithuania Predictions
Should be all fairly routine for England. There are an easy three points on offer for them here and being such a solid qualification side, you wouldn’t expect any upsets here, not with England’s attacking option. Back England to win to nil for 1/2 and Wayne Rooney is hard to ignore as First Goalscorer.
