Yerevan form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Yerevan, who have the most conceded goals (53) in Premier League, have only managed 0 wins, 0 draws and 7 losses from their games here at Vanadzor Football Academy. There have been more unhappy faces than points at this arena so far this season, with Yerevan yet to win or draw a Premier League game here. The sad story at Vanadzor Football Academy is: Yerevan played 7 games, lost 7 games. All in all it has been a very rough period for Yerevan who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 16 attempts. Their previous win was against Gandzasar II, 271 days ago. With eleven home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Yerevan fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Shirak II game long ago, can be stopped today.

In their previous game, the manager J. Caldas Oliveira led his Yerevan to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Lori. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Vanadzor Football Academy. Preceding that match was a defeat to Pyunik (2-8).

As you see from the result above, Yerevan suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Yerevan here at Vanadzor Football Academy in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 7 games). As for conceded goals, Yerevan's unpleasant statistic is 21 goals surrendered. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Yerevan have let the opposition score 21 times, an average of more than three per game.
