West Armenia vs Urartu Prediction: Urartu will cruise to victory

Defending champions Urartu will travel to the Junior Sport Stadium on Friday to battle division two champions West Armenia. The hosts are currently experiencing poor form in the top flight, with zero point to show so far. Previews, H2H, expert tips, and odds are provided below.

West Armenia

LLLLL

West Armenia's struggle for points in the top-flight football league continues as they remain without a single point in the current season. Despite earning promotion to the top league in Armenia after a successful campaign in the second-tier league, their transition to this higher level has proven challenging.

Having secured their promotion with 75 points in the previous season, West Armenia now find themselves grappling to establish a foothold in the top division. Their defensive vulnerabilities have been a significant concern, having conceded 16 goals in just five matches. This defensive frailty is particularly glaring, as it places them five goals behind the next team with the weakest defense, Shirak.

West Armenia occupy the bottom spot on the league table with zero points earned from their first five matches. Their offensive output has been limited, with just four goals scored, while their defense has struggled to hold firm against their opponents, resulting in a significant number of goals conceded.

Urartu

WWLDW

Urartu bounced back from their recent setback with a convincing victory in their latest match against Shirak, where they secured a 2-0 win. The scoring was initiated by Piloyan in the 14th minute, giving Urartu an early advantage. Grigoryan later sealed their victory with a goal in the 90+2 minute, sealing a well-deserved triumph for their team.

In the current season, Urartu's performance has been relatively consistent, with only one loss suffered in their five games played so far. This single defeat came at the hands of Noah. Currently positioned in third place on the league table, Urartu have accumulated 10 points from their five matches. Their offensive efforts have led to the scoring of seven goals, highlighting their attacking prowess. On the defensive end, they have conceded five goals.

Expert Betting Tips

The hosts are yet to settle in the league, and I don’t expect them to get anything from this match. Their defense is weak, and I expect the visitors’ attack to get the best out of them.
