The league table in First League tells a story about these teams so far, with West Armenia leading Shirak II by 9 points. Match preview to follow:
Shirak II could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a First League game only four sleeps ago.
West Armenia form and stats
West Armenia, who have the most scored goals (25) in First League, have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the First League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Armenia after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Ararat-Armenia II are coming to town in four days.
Armenia always seem capable of creating a buzz here at Sports Complex Dzoraghbyur with 12 goals in 3 league games. Armenia have conceded 4 in these home matches.
Shirak II form and stats
No First League points yet away for Shirak II, from their first 3 matches. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Shirak's last three away games as they have all been lost.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against BKMA was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Shirak manager as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Lernayin Artsakh.
Goals are few and far between in Shirak's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. The Shirak defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 9 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
West Armenia-Shirak II H2H statistics last two meetings regardless of arena: Armenia two wins, Shirak II zero wins, zero draws. two of these two matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).West Armenia missing players
