Luxembourg vs Lithuania prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Nations League 2022-23

Luxembourg host Lithuania at the Stade de Luxembourg on Sunday in their final Nations League fixture of the season.

With eight points from five games, the Red Lions are in second position of Group 1 in League C behind Turkey, who were promoted to League B.

The minnows put up a valiant performance against the Crescent Stars in midweek to share the spoils in a pulsating 3-3 draw.

However, it wasn't enough to keep their slim promotion hopes alive.

Lithuania are bottom of the group with just a point in five games, ending their losing run in the group with a 1-1 draw against the Faroe Islands on Thursday.
