The visiting Ararat-Armenia side should be favourites in this visit to Shirak, as the away team holds a 16 point advantage from their 13 league games this season.
- Shirak have the most conceded goals (37) in Premier League
- Ararat-Armenia have the fewest conceded goals in the second half (3) in Premier League
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Shirak form and stats
Shirak's results here at Gyumri City Stadium in the Premier League have been very modest with 0 victories, 2 draws and 5 defeats. With seven home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Shirak fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Ararat game long ago, can be stopped today.
Shirak haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 313 minutes ago. A. Gevorkyan scored that one.
The lack of attacking qualities in Shirak means that they have only scored 1 goal in 7 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.
Ararat-Armenia form and stats
3-2-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Ararat-Armenia, who have the fewest conceded goals (1) away in Premier League, in their Premier League matches away.
Ararat-Armenia have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 219 minutes ago. W. Angulo was the goal scorer.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Banants with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Ararat's place.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Ararat-Armenia's away games in the league this season with only 3 goals from 6 matches. Ararat-Armenia's manager D. Campaña Piquer has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 1 conceded goal. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
