Estonia - Lithuania

The Baltic Cup has been held since 2005, which is essentially two or three friendlies between the national teams of the region and whoever collects more points gets a cup to say the least.

The participating teams are Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, while for two years Finland took part and there were four teams, the event was held with semifinals and a small and a big final. From 2008 onwards it is held every two years and the matches take place at the home of each host. Today the match takes place in Estonia and on Saturday the current host will go to Latvia to face its other neighbor. Latvia has four conquests and Lithuania has two.

Estonia, which was in our national team together with Belgium and Bosnia for the World Cup qualifiers, finished 4th with a relatively good course and after the qualifiers gave 8 friendly matches with three victories with Malta, Fiji and Vanuatu, three draws. , New Caledonia, Armenia and two defeats by Finland and Georgia in the most recent friendly that ended in March.

Lithuania, on the other hand, did not do well in the qualifying round, finishing in the penultimate position over Malta, while the rest of the group was England, Slovakia and Scotland. Two friends gave in March, losing 4-0 to Georgia and winning 0-1 in Armenia.

The two teams are preparing for the Nations League that will start in September and will replace the friendlies between the national teams and the match between them is a good test. These are teams of the same capacity and similar style of play that have a hard time scoring. The last seven between them were under with only one of them having goals from both sides. It was ten years ago the only draw between them in 12 matches and it ended 1-1. Without having the necessary detailed picture of the teams, just intuitively and based on similar capacity I will go with the tie to a low bet that pays very well at 3.50 of Bet365.
