Latvia vs Lithuania Prediction and Betting Tips | June 8th 2024

A place in the final of the 2024 Baltic Cup will be up for grabs on Saturday when Latvia and Lithuania square off at the Daugava Stadium in Liepaja. Paolo Nicolato’s men head into the weekend unbeaten in their last four games against the Nacionalinė komanda and will look to extend this impressive run.

Latvia failed to find their feet last time out as they played out a disappointing 1-1 draw with Liechtenstein in a friendly on March 26.

Nicolato’s side have now gone five consecutive games without a win across all competitions, losing three and claiming two draws since October’s 2-0 victory over Armenia.

Latvia now turn their attention to the Baltic Cup, where they will be looking to clinch a record-extending 14th title and their first since 2018.

Lithuania, on the other hand, are the second-most decorated side in the history of the Baltic states tournament, having clinched the title on nine occasions.

The Nacionalinė komanda head into the weekend off the back of a crucial 2-0 aggregate victory over Georgia in the League C relegation playout of the UEFA Nations League.

Lithuania are unbeaten in all but one of their last five competitive matches, claiming three wins and one draw since October 2023.
