Recent form

Cyprus

Cyprus have been experiencing a challenging period in their recent fixtures, with a concerning run of three consecutive defeats in their last three matches. Their form over the past six games has been inconsistent, with two wins sandwiched between two sets of losses. Defensively, Cyprus have struggled, conceding a worrying 14 goals in their last six matches, averaging 2.33 goals conceded per game. There have been several high-scoring encounters, particularly their 4-0 loss to Kosovo and their 4-1 victory over San Marino. Despite their defensive woes, Cyprus have shown some attacking prowess, scoring seven goals in six games, including four in a single match against San Marino. However, they have failed to score in their last three matches, all of which were UEFA Nations League fixtures. The team have managed only one clean sheet in this period, highlighting their defensive vulnerabilities. With 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals, Cyprus' games have tended to be high-scoring affairs.

Lithuania

Lithuania's recent form has been disappointing, with the team currently on a four-match losing streak in the UEFA Nations League. Their last victory came against Latvia in the Baltic Cup, but since then, they have struggled to find their footing. Over their past six matches, Lithuania have managed just one win and one draw, conceding nine goals whilst scoring only six. Defensively, they have been particularly vulnerable, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last five outings. The team's goal-scoring record is modest, averaging just one goal per game, which has contributed to their poor run of results. Interestingly, 67% of Lithuania's recent matches have seen both teams score, indicating that while they are finding the net, they are also struggling to shut out their opponents. With an even split between matches going over and under 2.5 goals, Lithuania's games have been somewhat unpredictable in terms of total scoring.

Recent home/away form

Cyprus

Cyprus have endured a difficult run of form at home, with their recent record showing only one win in their last six matches. The Cypriots have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring a mere three goals in this period, whilst conceding a concerning 12. Their defence has been particularly porous in recent UEFA Nations League fixtures, shipping seven goals in their last two home games against Romania and Kosovo. Despite this poor run, Cyprus did manage to keep a clean sheet in their 1-0 victory over Lithuania in a friendly match. The team's goal-scoring woes are evident, with half of their recent home games ending with Cyprus failing to score. Their sole draw came against Latvia, highlighting the team's struggles against even lower-ranked opposition.

Lithuania

Lithuania's recent away form has been inconsistent, with two wins and four losses in their last six matches on the road. The team have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, scoring just 0.83 goals per game, but they've shown flashes of brilliance with two impressive 2-0 victories against Latvia and Bulgaria. Defensively, Lithuania have been somewhat vulnerable, conceding 1.33 goals per game on average, although they've managed two clean sheets in this period. The majority of their away matches (83%) have been low-scoring affairs, with fewer than 2.5 goals. Notably, Lithuania are currently on a run of three consecutive away defeats, which they'll be keen to break in their next fixture. The highest-scoring game in this sequence was their most recent 3-1 loss to Romania in the UEFA Nations League, which was the only match where both teams scored.
