We sneak past the iron curtain on Saturday and take a look at the development of football in the post-Soviet era. Two teams, whose players once kicked together under the umbrella of the USSR, now meet as sovereign states in the European Championship qualifiers - albeit with different omens
The Lithuanians have been unable to develop a good name in football since independence. Probably many sports fans of the Baltic country are currently looking more to the basketball World Cup in China, where the Lithuanians certainly have chances, perhaps to play for the medals. Ukraine, on the other hand, has arrived in world football and was even allowed to host a European Championship finals in 2012 as co-host.
In the direct duel between Lithuania and Ukraine, the forecast for the winner is not particularly difficult. The Ukrainians are the clear favorite and the table also shows how the balance of power looks in this encounter. Ukraine is leading the ranking with ten points from the first four matches.
Lithuania is currently last with just one point from three games. Ukraine is well on its way to winning the European Championship for the third time in a row. Lithuania has never been there before and will not be part of the Europe-wide edition next year either, with Portugal, Serbia and even Luxembourg hosting three more teams in this pool.
The balance of the last months is also no encouragement for the Lithuanians. In the end, it's just the view of the basketball players who at least deliver successful sport. In football, in the encounter between Lithuania and Ukraine, only a tip on an away win is a tried and tested means to retract a small profit with this match.
However, it remains to mention that the Ukrainians have often been in the direct duels against the Elf from the Baltic States schwergetan. Should Lithuania turn out to be a stumbling block for the ambitious guests? The kick-off for the European Championship qualifier between Lithuania and Ukraine at the Vilnius LFF Stadium will take place on 07.09.2019 at 18:00.
Lithuania - Statistics & Current Form
Actually, internationals are festivals for a whole football nation. But that also means that one would like to get one or the other success. However, that was by no means the case with the Lithuanians. The Lithuanians have not won since 14 international matches. The last victory came about a year and a half ago against Armenia.
Although Lithuania plays at home in Vilnius on an artificial turf, one can hardly speak of a bastion, because even at home there was no victory in the last eight matches. Under Valdas Urbonas everything is supposed to get better now. The coach has now been in office for four games, and after all, he drew two against Azerbaijan and Luxembourg.
The one or the other legionnaire is the Lithuanians, but they usually do not play in the top teams. From a star in the team we can not speak altogether. Being successful over the collective has not worked either. Therefore, in principle, it is only in the match between Lithuania and Ukraine that the odds of an away win are used.
In the last international match the Balten had to compete in the middle of June in Serbia and presented there compact, but once again chance. At break, it was 3-0 for the Serbs. Arvydas Novikovas made it 3-1 on penalties, but Valdas Urbonas's side were sent home with a 1: 4 defeat.
The coach sees the difficulties in the rather moderate level of the national league. If you do not regularly compete against good teams, then hardly an actor can recommend for a big club.
"We are looking forward to a great game against Ukraine. We have an obligation to our fans to give everything. "
Valdas Urbonas
Nevertheless, the anticipation is great. The coach said that he and his players consider it a duty to demand everything from Ukraine.
Personnel has the new coach in the last few games tried a lot. Numerous actors were tested. Now hopes the coach that he has from the nearly 50 players a strong and ready squad together. However, former Bochum-based Arvydas Novikovas are not included in the games against Ukraine and Portugal.
Estimated formation of Lithuania:
Setkus - Andriuskevicius, Palionis, Klimavicius, Jankauskas, Baravykas - Slivka, Simkus, Mikuliunas, Chernykh - Laukzemis - Coach: Urbonas
Last matches of Lithuania:
10.06.2019 - Serbia vs. Lithuania 4: 1 (European Championship Qualification)
07.06.2019 - Lithuania Vs. Luxembourg 1: 1 (European Championship Qualification)
25.03.2019 - Azerbaijan vs. Lithuania 0: 0 (friendly)
22.03.2019 - Luxembourg vs. Lithuania 2: 1 (European Championship Qualification)
20.11.2018 - Serbia vs. Lithuania 4: 1 (Nations League)
Ukraine - Statistics & Current Form
Under Andrey Shevchenko, Ukraine seems to have regained its luster. The national team is the pride of the Ukrainians and confirms the love of the fans with a very successful phase. In the Nations League, the rise in the highest division succeeded and therefore is about this competition, the qualification for the EURO 2020 also possible.
In the regular qualifier, it looks very good too. Overall, Ukraine has lost just one of the last 15 internationals. Most recently they were without five defeats and remained without conceding, among others, against Portugal, Turkey and Serbia. The Ukrainian team currently has wind under their wings.
There are many experienced players in the team, who played in the home European Championship in 2012 and have fought numerous international battles with Shakhtar Donetsk and Dynamo Kiev, for example. The experience should pay off; Therefore, in the duel between Lithuania and Ukraine remains only a forecast for a success of the guests.
In June, however, Ukraine showed two faces in the two internationals. Against the strengthened Serbs there was a terrific 5: 0-success. Perhaps this victory cost the Ukrainians a little bit of grip, because only three days later Roman Yaremchuk's goal was to make a narrow 1-0 victory over Luxembourg.
Nevertheless, the Ukrainians are fully in the target. Coach Andrey Shevchenko makes clear that the only goal is to qualify for the European Championship next year.
"Our clear goal is to qualify for EURO 2020. With a victory in Lithuania, we want to take the next big step. "
Andrey Shevchenko
Both the Nations League and the normal qualification, the team is in the target. With a victory on Saturday in Lithuania Andrey Shevchenko wants to take the next step.
Yaroslav Rakitsky is also out of the match and obviously does not have an easy time with the coach. Otherwise missing from the well-known actors still Artem Kravets and Roman Zozulya. Although Roman Yaremchuk is present, but the attacker complains of problems at the Achilles tendon. If he can not play, the naturalized Junior Moraes would be the first alternative.
Expected formation of Ukraine:
Pyatov - Mykolenko, Matvienko, Kryvtsov, Karavayev - Stepanenko - Konoplyanka, Malinovsky, Zinchenko, Yarmolenko - Junior Moraes - Coach: Shevchenko
Last matches of Ukraine:
10.06.2019 - Ukraine vs. Luxembourg 1: 0 (European Championship Qualification)
07.06.2019 - Ukraine vs. Serbia 5: 0 (European Championship Qualification)
25.03.2019 - Luxembourg vs. Ukraine 1: 2 (European Championship Qualification)
22.03.2019 - Portugal vs. Ukraine 0: 0 (European Championship qualification)
20.11.2018 - Turkey vs. Ukraine 0: 0 (friendly)
Lithuania vs. Lithuania Ukraine Direct Comparison
Eight times the paths of the national teams from Lithuania and Ukraine have crossed to this day. The direct comparison is not as clear as one might have thought. After victories Ukraine are ahead 5: 2. An encounter ended in a draw. The last competitive matches are already over ten years back.
The last direct duel ever was in November 2014 in a friendly match in Kiev. At that time, the two opponents separated with a goalless draw. However, at the end of the calendar year Ukraine started with a B-team. Almost all the stars were spared by former coach Mikhail Fomenko.
Lithuania v. Ukraine Tip & Forecast - 07.09.2019
For Lithuania, it should be in this game only for the honor. The train in the direction of EURO 2020 has left again this year without the Balten, although theoretically everything is still possible. To prove against Ukraine, Serbia and Portugal should be impossible at present. For 14 games there was no victory for the Lithuanians.
The Elf of Andrey Shevchenko is currently the stark opposite. In the past 15 internationals, there was only one bankruptcy. This results in the rise in the Nations League and the good starting position in the European Championship qualification. There is almost every indication that in the match between Lithuania and Ukraine we will place a tip on a victory for the visitors.
Key Facts - Lithuania Vs. Ukraine tip
Lithuania has been waiting for a win since 14 games.
Ukraine has lost just one of the last 15 internationals and has remained undefeated five times in a row.
The direct comparison speaks to 5: 2 wins for Ukraine.
The question remains how difficult the Ukrainians will do, or how intensively the Lithuanians will defend themselves. We think that the guests have to knock stones for a long time to win the game, but it should be a success with two goals difference.
Therefore, in the qualifier between Lithuania and Ukraine we will use the betting odds of just under 2.00 on a handicap victory (-1) of Ukraine.

On Saturday in Vilnius the Lithuanian team will welcome guests from Ukraine. It's interesting that Ukrainian fans have long been buying tickets to the game in their industry and have even received an additional quota from the local association, and the hosts are in no hurry to support their favorites.
I wanted to go to this game, but it did not grow together a bit, although I still know how the teams will play.
Lithuanian national team
The Lithuanians in my opinion had a bit of bad luck with the draw. First, the group will have three teams leading the fight for the first two places and the journey to Euro 2020. Secondly, the only rival you can fight with (the Luxembourg national team) has been very well developed and played lately.
It is logical that after four rounds, the Baltic States are in last place one point behind. They could paint at home with the same Luxembourg, they could not take revenge for the defeat on the street. They also fell under the hot hand of the Serbs, who were extremely motivated to rehabilitate themselves after the failure in Lviv, because they had failed before their fans.
National team of Ukraine
For a long time "yellow-black" did not start well in the qualification cycles. They have already managed to pull a very important lot in Portugal, to smash the houses of another big competitor and to beat the relentless Luxembourg twice.
After such a shock segment, Ukraine are leading the group confidently and facing a series of games against the Lithuanian national team. In case of double success and a possible loss of points of the opponent, the "squad" of Andrey Shevchenko can pre-order a ticket for the continental championship.
tactics
Shevchenko builds up the game of his team according to his opponent, so we see in almost every game different, sometimes very unexpected tactical schemes. Against Luxembourg came the national team with a 4: 1: 4: 1 into the game, which was apparently wrong. At a meeting with Serbia, however, he sat down with 4: 3 against Serbia and surprised the guests. I think that you have to play three strikers in Lithuania, so I expect such a regulation.
Valdas Urbonas also does not focus on an option, but does not experiment so often and has a priority scheme. As far as I know, he will not be using his 4: 2: 3: 1 against Ukraine, but as in the game against Serbia, a 5: 4: 1 draw is expected on Saturday.
Despite all the improvements in the national team of Ukraine, the "yellow-blacks" have problems. if you have to act against saturated defense.
There is no doubt that Lithuania will be sitting at his gates and waiting for the slightest chance of a counterattack.
I think the class will still win, but it is unlikely that the game will be productive.
On September 7th in Vilnius, where Lithuania will host the Ukrainian team, an important European Championship qualifier will take place. The site has prepared its prediction for the game Lithuania - Ukraine.
Lithuania
The Lithuanian national team is currently a team, which usually occupies the last or penultimate place in their selection. Such a team is currently not capable of a big sensation. In this selection, the Lithuanians look weak and will most likely finish last. The team could only play against Luxembourg, but lost away 2-1 and played at home 1: 1 The Lithuanians played another away game against the Serbs and lost 4: 1.
Ukraine
The Ukrainian team looks very strong in this selection. The team started with a major draw against Portugal - 0: 0. In the second round there was a tortured away win against Luxembourg - 2: 1. The home game against Serbia was a real advantage for the Ukrainians. Perhaps Ukraine has brought out the best game in its history, defeating a strong opponent 5-0. In the fourth game, the Ukrainians defeated Luxembourg for the second time at home - 1: 0. Ukraine is now leading their group, but it is too early to relax. The Serbs and Portuguese are still catching up, so you need to score maximum points in such games.
Personal meeting statistics
The teams played in official games four times against each other, each of the teams won two games. In friendly matches, the advantage is on the side of the national team of Ukraine, a win and a draw. More than 20 years have passed since the last official meeting, and the level of Ukrainians has increased significantly since then.
Match prediction
For the Ukrainian team, this is a very important game as you have to score three points in this game. The Lithuanians say nothing, but they will try to give the opponent a decent fight. We believe that the protective spells of Andriy Shevchenko will be able to achieve the desired result. We have the Ukrainians with a handicap of -1.5 goals.
Free forecast for the match Lithuania Ukraine September 7: Victory of Ukraine with handicap -1.5
Lithuania
A modest European team that has not managed to achieve remarkable results internationally in recent years. In the qualification round for the European Championship 2020 Lithuania is committed to the fact that no other teams play and tries to put a "bus" in front of the gates. All this, the protective spells of Valdas Urbonas do not bring the right result, and it is the Lithuanians who close the table in their group and win only one point in their fortune (a draw against Luxembourg). In this game, the Lithuanians face the leaders and the prospects for the home side are dim.
As part of Lithuania, only two football players can be distinguished, which embody the attacking flanks of this team (Chernysh and Novikovas). It is these players who are responsible for the attack in the Lithuanian national team, but the position of the center forward in the team is one of the most problematic, and here we remember with nostalgia the times of the performances of Edgaras Jankauskas.
Ukraine
Andrei Shevchenko's stations are well on their way to the 2020 European Championship and are at least two points ahead of all competitors (taking into account unplayed matches). In the current selection, Ukraine is continuing the successful league trend in the League of Nations and is showing its football at a very high level. Ukraine is not only reliable in defense (only 1 goal), which is traditional for this team, but also very effective in the attack (8 goals scored).
The team is well equipped and there are no open positions. A reliable Pyatov is active at the gates, Mikolenko, Matvienko, Krivtsov in defense, Yarmolenko, Konoplyanka, Stepanenko, Marlos, Tsygankov in midfield and Moraesh or the talented Yaremchuk in attack (do not play due to injury). This selection of players allows the coaches of Ukraine to expect consistently high international results.
Betting Odds for Bookies for the Game Lithuania - Ukraine
The obvious favorites of this game are the guests, whose victory was estimated by bookmakers with a coefficient of 1.35. The victory of the Lithuanians will be announced at 12.00 and a draw at 5.10. We consider this power orientation to be completely fair. Sums with classical values are given the following quotas by the bookmakers: "Sum is greater than 2.5" in 2.17, "Sum is less than 2.5" in 1.77. Such numbers speak for a low game performance.
Forecast and bet on the match Lithuania - Ukraine by website analysts
The Ukrainian team is just one step away from a ticket to Euro 2020, which will be another breakthrough for football in this country. In this game, only a miracle can prevent Shevchenko's wards from winning, and we expect a solid advantage from the guests in the long run. Our forecast is the victory of the guests taking into account the negative handicap.
Bet: Victory of Ukraine with a handicap (-1,0) - 1,51.
