Armenia Montenegro betting prediction

The home team is currently in the 6^th position, no points won yet, after 3 losses. In the penultimate round, they have lost a home match against Romania by (0‑5). In the last round, they have lost an away match against Poland by (2‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins and 12 losses in away matches; against 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses at their stadium. Armenia has tied 2 and lost 3 of the last 5 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 3 of the last 14 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 2 of those 3 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. In 14 matches, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Armenia heads into this match after a 2-1 loss away against Poland, their 3rd consecutive loss in these qualifiers, as Marcos Pinheiro Pizzelli scored their only goal. In this home match, coach Artur Petrosyan should maintain their 4-5-1 formation, prioritising a low line and long balls forward. They have a lot of issues against crosses, defensive organization and headers. The good news is they will have the return of Mkhitaryan, who was injured. However, Gor Malakyan will be unavailable due to a suspension.

Confirmed Lineup: Arsen Beglaryan, Hrayr Mkoyan, Varazdat Haroyan, Levon Airapetyan, Taron Voskanyan, Artak Grigoryan, Gor Malakyan, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Marcos Pizzelli, Gevorg Ghazaryan, Ruslan Koryan.
Coach: J. de Jesús Caparrós Camino.
