Dfk Dainava Alytus - FK Riteriai

In the complete disaster experienced by VZ in Europe, where everything was buried within 30 minutes, they will return to the Top League and continue their fight for the title. I hope that the European loss will not affect their morale too much and they will return to their form that they demonstrated before the trip to Georgia. Their form has been excellent, winning 4 consecutive matches in the Top League, and 5 out of the last 7. This trip to Kaunas will be against a weak Hegelmann team, who recently broke their 8-game losing streak against Siauliai, who are currently at the bottom of the standings. VZ has only 1 point against Kaunas this season out of 6, but their last meeting was against a strong Zalgiris team. I believe they will win this time around, and overall, VZ has been solid in away matches (3rd in points in the league).

Vilnius realistically tested its chances during the away game and they should understand this very well. Therefore, maximum focus should be on these matches, especially since Hegelmann currently seems to have a very vulnerable team, despite their victory against Siauliai during the away game. Vilnius Zalgiris, after a tragic first period against Tbilisi, seems to be in good form, and the away status here is definitely not helped by the Hegelmann fans. Vilnius is the better team, now they just need to prove it on the court.

Vilnius realistically evaluated their chances in the away game and they should understand it perfectly. Therefore, maximum focus is required for these matches, especially since Hegelmann seems to be a very vulnerable team at the moment, despite the victory against Siauliai in their away game. Vilnius Zalgiris, after a tragic first half against Tbilisi, appears to be in good form, and with the support of their fans, they have a good chance even as the away team. Vilnius is the better team, it just needs to be proven on the court.
