Lithuania host Estonia at the Darius and Girėnas Stadium in Kaunas on Tuesday in the final of the 2024 Baltic Cup, aiming for their first title in the mini-tournament since 2010.
Ranked 137th in the world, Lithuania overcame Latvia in the semi-finals to get here. Second-half goals from Armandas Kucys and Artūr Dolžnikov earned them a 2-0 victory away from home.
It also extended the side's winning run to three games in all competitions, with Luthania previously beating Gibraltar in a pair of 1-0 wins in the 2022-23 UEFA Nations League relegation play-outs in League C.
Meanwhile, Estonia are in their third final in the last four editions of the Baltic Cup. Having finished runners-up in the 2018 edition, the Blueshirts made amends two years later by going all the way to lift their fourth title in the competition.
