Italy Lithuania betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the existence of multiple goals. Unsurprisingly, Italy should dominate the incidences of the match, as they have an eleven superior to the visiting team. On the other hand, Lithuania is going through a very negative moment, however, they have a very dangerous counterattack. Having said that and taking into account these factors, risking in favor of goals in this match is a good option.

Preview
Italy and Lithuania meet at MAPEI Stadium ‑ Città del Tricolore, in a match for this stage of the WC Qualification Europe (Group Stage). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Italy

The home team is currently in the 1st position, with 11 points won, after 3 wins and 2 draws. In the penultimate round, they have tied a home match against Bulgaria by (1‑1). In the last round, they have tied an away match against Switzerland by (0‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in away matches, with 29 goals scored and 4 conceded; against 9 wins and 6 draws at their stadium, with 43 goals scored and 6 conceded. Italy has won 9 and tied 1 of the last 10 home matches.

They haven’t lost any of the last 5 matches for this competition. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 1 of the last 5 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 14 of the last 16 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have been able to score first and have done so in 13 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 8 of those 13 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 10 of them.

The Italian team comes unmotivated for this match after a 0-0 draw on the trip to Switzerland, thus adding the second consecutive match without a win in this qualifying phase for the World Cup 2022. Coach Roberto Mancini should play in his usual style tactical scheme, the 4-3-3, privileging the maintenance of possession of the ball and the paused attacks, looking in most occasions for the offensive reference Ciro Immobile: this player is the best scorer with 2 goals scored. All players are available for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Gianluigi Donnarumma, Alessandro Bastoni, Cristiano Biraghi, Francesco Acerbi, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Bryan Cristante, Jorginho, Matteo Pessina , Giacomo Raspadori, Federico Bernardeschi, Moise Kean.
Coach: L. Spalletti.

Analysis Lithuania

The away team is currently in the 5th position, no points won yet, after 4 losses. In the penultimate round, they have lost a home match against Northern Ireland by (1‑4). In the last round, they have lost an away match against Bulgaria by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 1 draw and 11 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 35 conceded; against 2 wins, 3 draws and 10 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 30 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Lithuania has won 3 and lost 7.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 losses in the last matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Lithuania enters this match after a defeat, by 1-0, in the trip to Bulgaria, adding the fourth consecutive defeat in this qualifying phase. Mister Tomas Razanauskas has an attractive style of play, favoring the organization of his defensive block and counterattacks. Offensive set pieces are a very strong point of Lithuania. For this game, the foreigner coach can't count on Domantas Simkus and Fedor Černych, both suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Ernestas Šetkus, Martynas Dapkus, Edgaras Utkus, Linas Klimavičius, Vaidas Slavickas, Justas Lasickas, Ovidijus Verbickas , Vykintas Slivka, Donatas Kazlauskas, Arvydas Novikovas, Edgaras Dubickas.
Coach: V. Urbonas.
