Lithuania vs Bulgaria Prediction and Betting Tips | June 17th 2023

Lithuania and Bulgaria resume their quest for a place in the 2024 European Championship when they square off at the Darius and Girėnas Stadium on Saturday.

Both sides are yet to pick up a win in the qualifiers and will head into the weekend looking to get some points on the board.

Lithuania were left empty-handed in their Euro 2024 qualifying opener as they suffered a 2-0 loss to Serbia back in March.

This followed a forgettable run in the 2022 Baltic Cup, where they suffered successive defeats against Iceland and Estonia.

Edgaras Jankauskas’s men have failed to win their last 11 matches, dating back to a 2-1 victory over San Marino in March 2022.

Bulgaria, meanwhile, failed to get their qualifying campaign up and running as they were thrashed 3-0 by Hungary last time out.

This followed a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Montenegro in their group opener on March 24 which saw their six-match winless run come to an end.

Bulgaria head into the weekend unbeaten in their last 10 competitive matches, with a 1-0 victory over North Macedonia in September 2022 being the exception.
