Who will win between Žalgiris and Džiugas?

Žalgiris are narrow favourites on head-to-head record, with ten home wins in 15 meetings against Džiugas, yet their current home form is poor and the visitors sit third, so this is close to a coin-flip.

Which side is in better form?

Džiugas hold the form edge, sitting third with 37 points and winning two of their last five away games, while Žalgiris have lost three straight at home, which tempers their historical advantage.

Will both teams score in this match?

Both teams scored in only two of the last five meetings, though the head-to-head average is 2.9 goals. With Žalgiris leaking goals at home, BTTS is a real possibility but not a confident call.

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

FK Žalgiris claimed a 2-0 win over Džiugas Telšiai in A Lyga, with Ivan Lytvynenko's strike just before the hour proving decisive. The home side added a second in the 90th minute to make the points safe.

Lytvynenko broke the deadlock in the 59th minute to make it 1-0. Džiugas' task grew harder when Valentino Vermeulen was sent off in the 86th minute, and Žalgiris doubled their lead four minutes later.

Lytvynenko was the only named scorer, providing the opener that opened up a tight contest. With the match settled by a late red card and a stoppage-time goal, Žalgiris' patience in the second half did the job.
