This is the First League season opener for these teams, who are finally competing for points again. Will Banants II or Shirak II get that important first win?

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Shirak II have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 1-1-18 (win-draw-loss) from 20 matches.
