Spain vs. Lithuania Tip & Quotas, 08.06.2021 – 20:45
Spain’s EM general rehearsal will take place on Tuesday evening, 08.05.2021 at 20:45 at the Estadio Butarque in Madrid against Lithuania. Last Friday, Furia Roja hosted European Champion Portugal and was challenged more than Lithuania will be. In a desolate match they separated with a zero number. The Rinktine (national team) also had a friendly last Friday and lost in Latvia. The Lithuanians have been released for firing this year and have so far lost all five international matches.

Luis Enrique’s national team tested Portugal last week in front of 15,000 spectators in the Wanda Metropolitano. But there were no goals and so they split with a draw in the first friendly this year. The three World Cup qualifying games have been more successful so far, even though the opening match with the 1:1 home against Greece started disappointingly. Two victories followed in Georgia (2:1) and at home against Kosovo (3:1).
The Enrique elf is still unbeaten this year and has caught a medium-sized group with Sweden, Poland and Slovakia in the EURO. It is not unlikely that the Iberians will continue to be unbeaten after the preliminary round. The last European Championship in France ended with two defeats in the last group match against Croatia (1-2) and in the eighth round against Italy (0-2). The first two preliminary rounds against the Czech Republic (1:0) and Turkey (3:0) were successful.
The triple European champion has to give up captain Sergio Ramos in the friendly against Lithuania. But even worse is the failure of the real Madrid star for the whole EURO. The recently tested positive for Corona Sergio Busquets from FC Barcelona will also be missing and has already left the Spanish training camp. As a result, the entire national squad of Spain will be sealed off and the U21 of the Iberians will play the friendly against Lithuania.

The North-East Europeans also played a friendly last Friday and had to give in to defeat in Latvia. The Lithuanians compensated for the guided tour for the hosts through a private gate of Beneta (37th) after the change of sides by Paulius Golubickas (67th). Just two minutes later, Emsis met by head for a new lead for the Latvians (69.). Uldrikis then closed the sack in the final phase with his goal for a 3-1 victory for Latvia (85th).
The national team of Valdas Urbonas has squandered all three friendship kicks this year. The friendly at home against Estonia was also lost 0-1 on 1 June. In March of this year, the Rinktine even went down 0-4 in Kosovo. The World Cup qualifying is no better against even stronger opponents. In Switzerland (0:1) and on the 2nd day of the game against Italy (0:2) there was nothing to be gained. Thus, the Lithuanian national team will not be present at the World Cup next year in Qatar, even if there are still theoretical chances. Lithuania has never been able to qualify for an EM.
The squad has a total value of just 7.35 million euros and, as the results this year suggest, is not really competitive. Football connoisseurs of the German 3rd League could know Edvinas Girdvainis from KFC Uerdingen. Otherwise, there are completely unknown players. The captain is Saulius Mikoliunas of the Lithuanian first division team Zalgiris Vilnius.

Spain’s U21 is a clear favourite for victory even against Lithuania’s A-Team. The small Iberians have a market value of 166 million euros and are therefore worth more than 20 times more than the A-Eleven of Rinktines. The young Spaniards have already won the European Championship five times and recently missed the entry into the European Championship final at the U21-EM against Portugal (0:1). The Urbonas elf has squandered all five international matches this year and will pick up the sixth bankruptcy against the little Spaniards. Anything else would be a big surprise. Associated with this we favor for this international prediction tip also wins the 3-way bets on Spain. The betting odds offered for this tip forecast are nevertheless in the range around 1.50+.
