Lithuania defender Marius Zaliukas eyeing England upset

Lithuania defender Marius Zaliukas is adamant that his side can cause a huge upset at Wembley when they take on England in their Euro 2016 qualifier at Wembley.

Lithuania defender Marius Zaliukas has insisted that his side have the ability to take all three points from their Euro 2016 qualifier against England at Wembley.

Igoris Pankratjevas's side have taken six points from their opening four games in Group E, and the Rangers man feels that he and his teammates may be able to take advantage of complacency within the Three Lions' lineup to claim their third victory of their qualifying campaign.

He told reporters: "Probably all of the country is expecting an easy game. Everyone in Scotland is laughing, because they expect it to be a big score. We want to disappoint them.

"We understand who are the favourites. People do not expect us to win. But the first 10 or 15 minutes will be important – if we are going to keep them quiet, we can make them nervous.

"Then they might make mistakes and we can take advantage of that. The result is important. You can't go to a game thinking you are going to lose. I was on the bench when we drew with Italy. It was a special game. In the stadium, everyone thought we would lose 5-0. It was a real shock. All their fans applauded us."

Lithuania and England face off at Wembley later today.
