Match background • The sides have yet to meet in an official game, but came together in the 1924 Olympic football tournament in France, with Switzerland beating Lithuania 9-0 on 25 May; Paolo Sturzenegger (2, 43, 68 and 85), Walter Dietrich (14), Max Abegglen (41, 50 and 58) and Rudolf Ramseyer (63p) were the scorers. • Swiss and Lithuanian sides have met in two men's UEFA age-limit tournaments, with both games ending in Swiss victories. • At club level, the only encounter in UEFA competition was a 1996/97 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup qualifying round tie between FC Sion and FK Kareda, which Sion won with a 4-2 home success and a 0-0 draw away.
