Alashkert II form and stats

Let's have a look at how Alashkert II performed last season in the First League: They landed a 8th position in the league table after playing out 2 victories, 6 draws and 20 defeats. In total they scored 24 and conceded 91 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 4 and lost 10 with 12/49 goals scored/conceded. Alashkert II have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the First League were 0 victories, 4 draws and 10 defeats from 14 fixtures.

Alashkert II lost away at Shirak II (0-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs BKMA II.

The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 39 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with 8 wins, 12 draws and 19 defeats. 14 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

A quick return to home after this game, as Alashkert are hosting Syunik in the First League only four days away.

It's early days yet, but Alashkert II has scored 0 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
