Baltušnikas made 42 appearances for the Lithuania national football team, scoring nine goals. The Russian Premier League, currently called SOGAZ Russian Football Championship due to sponsorship reasons, is the top division of Russian football. There are 16 teams in the competition. The league has three Champions League qualifying places given to teams who finish in the top three at the end of the season and two Europa League places to teams who finish fourth and fifth. Relegation to the National League Championship are given to teams who finish bottom and second-bottom at the end of the season.
