Portugal Should Not Have Difficulties In Conquering Lithuania

Portugal Should Have No Difficulties In Overcoming Lithuania Portugal with Cristiano Ronaldo should have no difficulty in defeating Lithuania in the 2020 European Cup qualifiers at the LFF Stadium on Wednesday (11/9).

Lithuania, who won just one point, lost again with Sragen 0-3 on Saturday (7/9) then against Ukraine on home soil. They may hope to get better results, but beating Portugal, who is the UEFA Nations League champion and defending European Cup champion, will be difficult.

As we predicted, Lithuania performed poorly in qualifications. They have lost three of their four group stage matches, only to draw at home to fellow small Luxembourg teams. In addition the country in eastern Poland has conceded 10 goals and only scored three goals during qualifying so far.

Lithuania head into Wednesday's game after two bad defeats. They lost 4-1 away in Serbia and lost 0-3 vs. Ukraine at the LFF stadium on Saturday. Such results do not bode well before facing the biggest and best team in Group B.
After winning the UEFA Nations League, Portugal have only played three times in the 2020 European Cup qualifiers, but they have proven themselves, along with Ukraine who are now top of the group standings, as favorites to finish in the top two.

Against Ukraine in the first match of Group B, Portugal was breathing heavily and achieving a disappointing 0-0 draw, while they also could only draw against Serbia in the second match. The mistake in the draw they paid on Sunday (8/9) when the Selecao won 4-2 in Serbia.

The visitors should be a tough opponent for Lithuania on Wednesday, even though the Selecao back line has not appeared solid lately. They conceded two goals at home to Serbia. We predict Lithuania will score in Wednesday's match but Portugal will win the match. Prediction scores of Lithuania vs Portugal 1-3
