Hungary will look to make it four straight wins in Group G of the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers when they take on Lithuania at the Darius and Girenas Stadium on Tuesday (October 17).
Lithuania picked up their first win of the Euro qualifiers on Saturday when they beat Bulgaria 2-0 at the Vasil Levski National Stadium. Before that, Jankauskas’ men were on a 15-game winless run across competitions, losing 11, since March 2022.
With five points from six games, Lithuania are fourth in their qualifying group, five points behind second-placed Serbia heading into the final two gamedays.
Meanwhile, Hungary edged closer to booking their spot in the Germany finals next year with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Serbia at the weekend. Marco Rossi’s men have won their last three qualifying games and are one of seven unbeaten sides in the qualifiers.
With 13 points from five games, Hungary are atop the standings, three points above second-placed Serbia, albeit with a game in hand.
