PREDICTION / ANALYSIS / ODDS

Transinvest 2 hosts Kauno Žalgiris II in 1 Lyga Round 12 action on Saturday at Sirvintu stadionas. The home side holds 12th place with 11 points, while the visitors sit bottom at 16th with just 3 points. Both teams have struggled recently, each managing only one win in their last five outings. This mid-table clash offers an opportunity for Transinvest 2 to consolidate, though Kauno Žalgiris II's dire form suggests the hosts should be favoured.

Transinvest 2 has shown mixed resilience: one win, four losses, conceding 18 goals in five games while scoring three—a alarming defensive record. Kauno Žalgiris II is in worse straits: one win in ten league matches, 3 points accumulated, and a goal difference of -14. The visitors have conceded just 7 in their last five games, suggesting some defensive tightening, but their attacking output remains anaemic. Transinvest 2's home advantage and superior league position make them clear favourites despite recent losses.
