• Northern Ireland defeated Lithuania 4-1 in their last fixture in September.
• Lithuania have lost their last six away games while failing to score in five of them.

Northern Ireland can complete the double against Lithuania

Northern Ireland welcome Lithuania in World Cup qualifying on Friday evening in Group C fixture.

Both teams can no longer qualify for the tournament. Northern Ireland have two games left while for Lithuania, this is their last fixture.

Lithuania have gotten just three points from seven qualifiers so far while Ireland have five to show from their six matches.

Northern Ireland’s only win came in a 4-1 success at Lithuania and they should be able to back that up with another victory against the same team at Windsor Park on Friday.

The visitors have lost 10 of their last 11 games and have lost last six on their travels, scoring just once in the process.  Northern Ireland managed clean sheets at home against both Switzerland and Bulgaria and should be able to keep another one against a poor Lithuania attack.

Prediction: 2-0 to Northern Ireland
