Panevezys vs Kaunas Prediction 13 September 2026
🔊 Panevėžys have spent the season in the lower half of the A Lyga table, though they still have a theoretical chance to turn things around and push for European competition. Kauno's motivation is far greater - the Žalgiris side are in the title race, sitting three points behind leaders Sūduva but ahead of their main rivals on points dropped. That league position makes every match particularly important for the visitors.
Head-to-Head
📊 The two sides have already met four times this season. Kauno Žalgiris won the Lithuanian Super Cup encounter 1-0, and they have also come out on top in both of their A Lyga meetings, with the other match ending in a draw. Panevėžys have now gone five games in a row without beating their more experienced and accomplished opponents.
Head-to-head statistics Panevezys - Kaunas
Panevezys Team Overview
Panevėžys have had an inconsistent season, though they do score regularly at home. Their position in the A Lyga table is comfortable enough that relegation is not a concern, but they still have a theoretical chance of finishing in the top three. There is also the possibility that fourth place could open up a European spot - if Kauno win the Lithuanian Cup in October, that position would become available for the league, and Panevėžys are currently seven points behind it. Their seasonal scoring average is 1.11 goals per game, and over their last ten matches they have been maintaining a rate of 1.3 goals per game. Defensively, though, they remain vulnerable, conceding at an average of more than 1.5 goals per match.
Match Results: Panevezys
Zalgiris Kaunas Team Overview
Kauno Žalgiris are among the leading sides in the championship and remain in contention for first place, sitting just three points off the top. They also have a game in hand, and their head-to-head record gives them an advantage over Suduva in the title race. Dropping points against a mid-table side is simply not something a club of their stature can afford. Over their last ten matches, Kauno Žalgiris have averaged 1.6 goals scored and 1.0 conceded per game - a reasonably solid balance between attack and defence. One trend worth noting, however: away from home, they have failed to score more than one goal in each of their last five matches.
Match Results: Zalgiris Kaunas
Prediction for the 1st half
Panevėžys have conceded in the first half in five consecutive head-to-head matches. This trend points to frequent early goals from Kauno Žalgiris in these meetings. Although Kauno Žalgiris's average scoring output away from home in their last 10 matches is modest, the historical head-to-head pattern gives reason to consider a bet on Kauno Žalgiris to Score in the First Half at 1.58.
Total Goals Prediction
Kauno Žalgiris have scored no more than one goal away from home in five consecutive matches. Their record across their last 10 away matches also shows an average of just 0.25 goals scored. These figures point to a persistent problem with attacking output on the road, which makes the bet on Kauno Žalgiris Team Total - Under 1.5 at 2.14 a reasonable one.
Both Teams to Score Prediction
Panevėžys have both scored and conceded at home in 6 of their last 7 matches. Given the hosts' consistent scoring and the frequency of goals at both ends in Panevėžys's home matches, Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.75 looks reasonable.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely scorelines are: 0-1 (12.52%), 1-1 (11.44%) and 1-2 (9.91%). A narrow Kauno Žalgiris win is the single most probable outcome, though a 1-1 draw and a 1-2 scoreline also feature in the top three most likely results according to the statistical model.
Risky Bet
Panevėžys have gone unbeaten in 7 of their last 10 home matches, while Kauno Žalgiris score few goals away from home. The bet on Panevėžys - Handicap +0.5 at 2.35 carries elevated risk but is supported by the hosts' home record.
⭐️ Editor's Prediction
Panevėžys have scored in ten consecutive home matches and in nine consecutive home A Lyga games. The team have also shown consistent attacking output at home, averaging 1.33 goals per match across their last 10 home games. In these circumstances, the bet on Panevėžys to Score looks a fairly reliable option.
