Lithuania Preview – Rinktine to suffer another damaging defeat?
Lithuania have had a tournament to forget, failing to take a single point from their four fixtures. They cannot be promoted, and Rinktine look nailed on to face a relegation play-out. They have scored just once and conceded a staggering 12 goals.
After a 2-0 home reverse to Luxembourg, Lithuania were hammered 6-0 by Turkey in Vilnius in game two. They gave a better account of themselves in match three, narrowly losing to Faroe Islands, but they lost 2-0 to Turkey in Izmir in their last one.
Lithuania will be hoping to restore some pride in their final two fixtures of Group C1. After Thursday’s matchup on home soil, the Lithuanians end their campaign with a trip to Stade de Luxembourg this weekend to face Luxembourg.
Faroe Islands Preview – Will Ericson’s side get the job done?
Faroe Islands have had a tough time in recent years, but they have a solid 2022-23 Nations League campaign up until now. Avoiding last place and a relegation play-out would have been the priority, and they are just one point away from achieving that goal.
Faroe Islands head into this one having taken four points from their four matches, winning one, drawing one and losing two. After defeats to Turkey and Luxembourg, they responded with a 2-1 win over Lithuania before drawing 2-2 at the Stade de Luxembourg last time out.
