A high scoring match could well be in store
We begin our tips by backing an over 3.5 goals tip. Turkey scored 12 times in three group games; that's four goals per game on average. Because of their high-scoring nature, Turkey's games usually feature lots of goals. As a matter of fact, four of Turkey's last five games saw at least four goals scored. Although Lithuania have not scored a lot of goals, they have seen their defence breached 10 times in their last three games alone. Considering six goals were scored in the reverse fixture of this tie, we should expect up to four goals today.
Turkey to win both halves
Lithuania have been going through a rough patch the past few months; they've lost four games in a row, with just one win in their last eight games. It's important to note that Lithuania managed to score just one goal in their last four games; they've played three games in this tournament so far, and lost both halves in two of them. In contrast, Turkey have had a flawless record in this tournament; they've won all three group games, scoring 12 times whilst allowing no goals. Additionally, Turkey won both halves in all of their three group games, including a 6:0 thumping of Lithuania in the reverse fixture; that's why we're picking them to win both halves.

Will Turkey maintain perfect start?
The form of these sides could not be more different. Turkey arrive here with a perfect record in group 1 whilst Lithuania are yet to earn a point. That obviously points to a Turkey win but football is never that simple. Let's see how the sides are likely to approach things.
Turkey have been on fire since the start of the UEFA Nations League; they've won three from three games so far, with 12 goals scored and none conceded. Turkey will take on last-placed Lithuania in their fourth group game; they'll look to string up four wins in a row for the first time in three years.
Turkey Predicted lineup – Alemdar, Müldür, Kabak, Ayhan, Kadioglu, Ünder, Özcan, Çalhanoğlu, Sinik, Dervisoglu, Dursun
Things have not gone too well for Lithuania recently; they've played three group games so far, and lost all three. It gets worse considering Lithuania registered just one goal in those three games whilst conceding 10 times; it'll be interesting to see if they can snap their losing streak as they go up against an in-form Turkey side.
Lithuania Predicted lineup – Šetkus, Mikoliūnas, Šatkus, Klimavičius, Sirvys, Armanavičius, Megelaitis, Novikovas, Golubickas, Dolznikov, Laukžemis
