Recap
SÅ«duva have established themselves as one of the most consistent teams in the league, with remarkable stability throughout the campaign. They currently boast a 10-match unbeaten run (5-5-0), the longest active streak in the competition.
The hosts sit just four points behind league leaders Kauno Žalgiris, while also having a game in hand, making this an excellent opportunity to close the gap at the top of the table. Sūduva have a nearly full-strength squad available, with Haydary (10/2) the only absence.
Hegelmann, meanwhile, arrive under very different circumstances. Their latest European campaign ended in disappointing fashion, suffering a heavy defeat in Estonia just four days ago. With their European hopes for next season dependent on a strong domestic finish, they face the need to put together a significant winning run, particularly as they currently sit only six points above the relegation play-off zone.
Their away form has been a major weakness, with a record of just 1-3-5, while the suspension of key midfielder Wesley (18/2) further weakens their midfield ahead of this difficult trip.
SÅ«duva are the best home team in the league and enter this match with superior form, greater consistency and significantly more momentum.
