Prediction: 2-0
Faroe Islands
After sharing the spoils with Albania in the Nations League last month, Lithuania will be aiming to return to winning ways when they host Faroe Islands at Vilniaus LFF stadionas. The Lithuanians are on a four-game unbeaten run in all competitions, meaning that the atmosphere in the home team’s dressing room is great ahead of the visit of Faroe Islands.
Hakan Ericson’s troops, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Andorra, but given their anything but good away record in UEFA and FIFA competitions, we are not tempted to put our money on the visiting team. One of the men to watch in the home team will be Donatas Kazlauskas, who plays for Lviv in the Ukraine Premier League. In their last meeting in Lithuania the former Soviet Republic emerged triumphant thanks to Tomas Danilevicius’ goal.
Highlighted Player (Vytautas Andriuskevicius):
Vytautas Andriuskevicius is a Lithuania international who plays for Portland Timbers as a left back. Andriuskevicius started his senior career at FBK Kaunas, but he made no more than 17 league appearances for the Lithuanian club from 2007 to 2010.

After ending his spell with Lechia, Vytautas Andriuskevicius moved to Sweden, signing a deal with Djurgardens. He played 31 league games for the Iron Stoves and at the end of the 2013/2014 season he joined Cambuur.
After spending two seasons in the Dutch club, the Lithuanian footballer signed for Major League Soccer club Portland Timbers on July 14, 2016. Andriuskevicius is a full back who side position is centre back and it has to be noted that he was born on October 8, 1990 in Alytus, Lithuania.

Highlighted Team (Faroe Islands):
Faroe Islands gained membership of FIFA on July 2, 1988 and they played their first official game on August 24 against Iceland. They were beaten by the Icelanders in Akranes, but two years later they recorded probably the most significant victory in the history of the national team as they defeated Austria 1-0 in Euro 1992 qualifiers.
Faroe Islands have yet to qualify for a major tournament, but they have been making progress year by year. The Landsliðið play their home games at Torsvollur and the capacity of the venue is 6.000. Faroe Islands recorded their biggest win against Gibraltar on March 1, 2014 (4-1) and they suffered their biggest defeat in 1996 when they were beaten 8-1 by Yugoslavia in front of home fans.
In the 2016 European Championship qualifiers Faroe Islands recorded a double victory over Greece, but the minnows eventually failed to book their place at the showpiece tournament in France. The likes of Frodi Benjaminsen, Oli Johannesen, Rogvi Jacobsen, Todi Jonsson and Jakup Mikkelsen are the most notable footballers who played for the Faroe Islands national team.
