Faroe Islands play host to Lithuania at the Tórsvøllur Stadium in Group C1 of the UEFA Nations League on Saturday.

Both sides head into the game on a run of two defeats from their opening two games of the campaign and will be looking to end this dry spell.

Faroe Islands failed to find their feet in the Nations League as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Luxembourg on Tuesday.

This followed a 4-0 loss at the hands of Turkey when the sides locked horns in last week’s group opener.

Faroe Islands have now lost each of their last six competitive games, stretching back to a 2-1 win over Moldova in September 2021.

Lithuania, on the other hand, were on the receiving end of a 6-0 thrashing against Turkey last time out.

Prior to that, they kicked off their Nations League campaign with a 2-0 loss to Luxembourg on June 4.

Lithuania head into the weekend on a three-game losing streak across all competitions, conceding nine goals and failing to score in that time.


Faroe Islands vs Lithuania Head-To-Head
