After four games we know a little more about the qualities of Banga and Kauno Žalgiris in this fresh A Lyga season. Read our match preview!
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Banga form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Banga's two home games in the A Lyga so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Gargždų miesto stadionas.
The Banga fans got no joy from their last match, a A Lyga game also here at Gargždų miesto stadionas: A 0-1 defeat against Žalgiris (placed 3rd). In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Trakai.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Banga as they have a new game in only four days, a A Lyga match thankfully also at home. Trakai are visiting.
Banga has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Kauno Žalgiris form and stats
Things could have gone better for Kauno Žalgiris in their A Lyga away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
E. David and S. Urbys scored in Žalgiris's previous match, the home game against Panevėžys that ended 2-0. Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Žalgiris.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Žalgiris manager R. Garastas as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Žalgiris.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Kauno Žalgiris has managed 3 goals and let in 1 from 2 matches.
