It's early days in the A Lyga and both Kauno Žalgiris and Panevėžys are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
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!
This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Panevėžys's home stadium. The visitors last 15 games on artifical turf have ended in 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses.

Panevėžys form and stats
It's not happening yet for Panevėžys on their A Lyga travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different?
