Ararat-Armenia welcome Alashkert for another interesting Premier League fixture here at Armenia Football Academy grass.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago. That game, against Shirak, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Alashkert.
There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
