Preview

Match preview

Brighton arrive on a solid unbeaten run, winning four of their last five matches and scoring four goals on average at home. Their defence has kept clean sheets in both recent fixtures, and they have never conceded in the competition so far. Kauno Žalgiris have been impressive away, winning three of their last four away games and scoring in each, but they face a side from a higher‑ranked league. Brighton are missing several players through injury, including key attackers, yet their recent form suggests they can still dominate. The fixture promises goals, with both teams showing an eye for scoring and a tendency to keep clean sheets.
