It's game two of the Premier League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview of Noravank-Pyunik!
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Noravank form and stats
Last season, Noravank's league statistics were 16 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses, resulting in a 4th position in the First League. Over these 28 matches they scored 47 goals and conceded 33. Playing at home last season Noravank managed 9-2-3 (win-draw-lost) with 23 goals and 12 conceded. In general it's been a long time since Noravank tasted defeat here at Charentsavan City Stadium, as they have taken at least one point from their last eleven home games in the league.
In their previous game, the manager V. Gevorgyan led his Noravank to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Banants. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Charentsavan City Stadium.
A strong away win before that one, visiting Lernayin Artsakh and winning 4-3.Pyunik form and stats
Let's have a look at how Pyunik performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 7 draws and 11 defeats. In total they scored 20 and conceded 18 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 1 and lost 6 with 16/8 goals scored/conceded. Only one away game in the Premier League so far for Pyunik and it resulted in three points. Last season the statistics for their away games were 6 victories, 1 draw and 6 losses from 13 travels.
Pyunik play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-0 victory visiting BKMA (placed 10th). As you can tell from the results above, Pyunik was very dominant against BKMA, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with J. Caraballo, E. Movsesyan, Juninho and G. Ghazaryan providing the goals.
A 0-1 loss hosting Banants before that.4 goals so far away for Pyunik, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 0. All from 1 league match away.
