BKMA form and stats

BKMA have been very modest guests so far, leaving with zero points in all their 5 away matches played so far in the Premier League. Bitter travels for BKMA as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Ararat-Armenia II match.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Artsakh wasn't a success with a 0-5 loss.
