Netherlands will invite Lithuania to the Johan Cruyff Arena (Amsterdam Arena) in their final 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier on Monday. The hosts are at the top of the Group G table with a three-point lead over Poland and have all but secured their qualification to the main event. Rinktinė are winless in the ongoing campaign thus far and will look to sign off with a win.
Oranje met Poland in their previous outing last week and were held to a 1-1 draw, ending their winning streak after three games. They conceded two minutes before the halftime break, and Memphis Depay pulled them level two minutes after the restart.
The visitors have lost their last three games in the qualifiers. They met Israel in a friendly last week and were held to a scoreless draw.
Netherlands vs Lithuania Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- The two teams met for the first time in the reverse fixture in September, and Oranje registered a 3-2 away win in that match.
- The hosts have suffered just one defeat across all competitions in 2025, with that loss registered in the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals on penalties against Spain.
- The visitors have recorded at least one win in their last five FIFA World Cup qualifying campaigns. They last went winless in the qualifiers for the 2002 edition of the competition.
- Lithuania have conceded at least two goals in their last three games in the World Cup qualifiers.
- The hosts are unbeaten in the World Cup qualifiers since March 2021.
- Rinktinė are winless across all competitions since June 2024.
- The visitors have kept just one clean sheet in the ongoing World Cup qualifying campaign.
Netherlands vs Lithuania Prediction
Oranje dropped points for just the second time in the ongoing qualifying campaign last week and will look to bounce back in this home game. They have scored 13 goals while conceding just once in three home games thus far.
Trispalvės have lost their last three qualifying games while conceding seven times, which is a cause for concern. They have failed to score in two of their three away games in the ongoing qualifying campaign.
Considering Oranje's current form and home record in the World Cup qualifiers, we back them to register a comfortable win.
Prediction: Netherlands 2-0 Lithuania
