Season ticket holders at Gyumri City Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Shirak II languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting Junior Sevan will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Shirak and Junior Sevan.

Shirak II form and stats

Shirak II's results here at Gyumri City Stadium in the First League have been very modest with 3 victories, 2 draws and 6 defeats. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Shirak with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Torpedo Yerevan game, 188 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Shirak II, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Masis (1-4).

Shirak were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Shirak II are traveling soon after this match as the First League match at Dilijan awaits in four days.

Shirak are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 16 goals in 11 games. Shirak have conceded 21 from these games.
