On Sunday, in the central "General Financing A League" XXXIV round match, Vilnius "Žalgiris" will play at home against "Šiauliai". On the same day, Alytus "Dainava" and Tauragės "Taurus" will face each other. On Saturday, Marijampolės "Sūduva" will seek revenge against "Atlantas" in Klaipėda, while Gargždų "Banga" will host Panevėžio "Ekranas".
"The most interesting will be in the A League training ground - the match between "Dainava" and "Taurus". I don't expect surprises elsewhere," - summarized round expert Paulius Malžinskas.
He leaves a good impression on the season - intrigue remains until the end. It is interesting to both the fan and the ordinary viewer.
Former footballer, referee P. Malžinskas values the championship leaders the most - "Ekranas" and "Žalgiris". They impress not only with their position but also with the most mature, stable gameplay.
"The most disappointing is "Sūduva". It has a good infrastructure, lineup, city support, but does not show what is expected of it," - said P. Malžinskas.
At the moment, P. Malžinskas, who is currently the President of the Sunday Football League (SFL), singled out three footballers playing in the league - Rafael Ledesma, Artūras Rimkevičius, and Irmantas Zelmikas. However, in the opinion of the SFL President, R. Ledesma is far from the game he demonstrated in the "Kaunas" team.
"Rimkevičius has achieved a great result. He scored so many goals representing not the strongest team in the league. Zelmikas is one of the best midfielders playing in Lithuania. This is also evidenced by the results of "Kruoja" - the team concedes few goals," - P. Malžinskas is convinced.
P. Malžinskas, who currently holds the position of Director of the Vilnius Regional Football Association (VRFS), watches A League matches both in the stadium and on television, and also on Futbolo.TV. In the latter, he watches not only matches but also their summaries, reports.
On October 27th, at 14:00, the match between Klaipėda "Atlantas" and Marijampolės "Sūduva" will take place. The location is at Klaipėda central stadium. Live broadcast on Futbolo.TV. Paulius Malžinskas's prediction - 1:2.
The XXXIV round will start with the match between "Atlantas" and "Sūduva". Klaipėda (24 points) - eighth, Marijampolė (63 pts) - third.
"Hard-fought match can be expected. Realistically looking, "Sūduva" is the stronger team, it cannot afford to lose points. I predict a minimal and very tough victory for Marijampolė squad - 2:1," - said P. Malžinskas.
"Atlantas" in the second half of the season surprises the Futbolo.TV round expert - the team no longer has financial difficulties, plays more steadily. According to P. Malžinskas, the team has gelled, and the foreigners help it a lot.
P. Malžinskas does not think that playing at home will have a significant impact for the Klaipėda team: "In Lithuania, the stands do not collapse from the fans. There is no away syndrome."
