Dinamo Tbilisi
Žalgiris VilniusDinamo Tbilisi enter their first home quarterfinal in the Conference League qualifiers as the nominal favourites, but that status should be taken with a pinch of salt. The Georgian side does not boast a significantly stronger squad than their opponents, and recent performances have shown a tendency to allow rivals too much freedom on the pitch. Zalgiris Vilnius, meanwhile, arrive in excellent shape and look more than capable of causing trouble even on foreign soil.
The club from the capital is in the thick of a demanding season in the Erovnuli Liga, where after 19 rounds they sit third with 31 points. That leaves them just three points behind leaders Iberia 1999, keeping them firmly in the title race. In the previous Conference League qualifying round, Temuri Ketsbaia’s men edged past modest Mondorf, grinding out a comeback win away (2-1) and holding on for a draw at home (1-1). Their resilience was also on display in early July, when they lifted the Georgian Super Cup by beating Dila on penalties after a goalless draw in regulation time. However, the two-legged tie against Mondorf exposed defensive frailties that even weaker opponents could exploit, and that vulnerability remains a concern heading into this clash.
The Lithuanian champions are also deep into their domestic campaign. After 20 matches in the A Lyga, they occupy fourth place with 31 points (9 wins, 4 draws, 7 losses), sitting just three points behind leaders Kauno Zalgiris. Andrius Skerla’s side have hit a rich vein of form: in the previous Conference League round, they dispatched Petrovac with minimal fuss, winning 2-1 at home and 3-1 away. Domestically, they have been scoring freely, recently posting emphatic wins over Transinvest (3-1) and FA Siauliai (3-0). This attacking momentum makes them a dangerous proposition for any defence.
The man in the middle is Robin Hensgens from the Netherlands. His record for the 2025/26 season points to moderate strictness: across 30 matches (covering the Eredivisie and Eerste Divisie), he has averaged 25.4 fouls and 3.6 yellow cards per game. Red cards (0.13 per match) and penalties (0.1 per match) are rare, suggesting he prefers to let the game flow and allow teams to compete physically.
Main bet: Zalgiris Vilnius not to lose at odds of 1.80
Dinamo Tbilisi have been far from consistent lately. They have managed to win in normal time in only three of their last seven matches across all competitions, which casts doubt on their ability to secure a victory here. Zalgiris, by contrast, are riding a five-game unbeaten streak and have shown no signs of slowing down. The visitors are in superb form and have the quality to stand up to the favourites on their own turf. We assess the probability of this outcome at 58% (anything above 1.72 is considered playable).
Second bet: Total goals over 2.5 at odds of 2.25
Both teams are capable of playing lively attacking football. Five of Dinamo’s last eight matches and four of Zalgiris’s most recent outings have featured three or more goals. Given the defensive lapses in the Tbilisi backline and the Lithuanian side’s scoring prowess, we can expect an entertaining contest with enough goals to clear the 2.5 mark. The estimated probability stands at 48% (anything above 2.10 is playable).
