Shirak II form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the First League this season. Shirak II, who have the most conceded goals (23) at home in First League, have only managed 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Gyumri City Stadium. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Shirak with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Noravank game, 60 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Shirak, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Shirak has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Shirak having conceded 23 goals here at Gyumri City Stadium so far.
