Alashkert

Alashkert have recently faced challenges, having lost their last 2 games in which they conceded 2 goals in each match. In their last match against Shirak Gyumri, they managed a 2-0 win, although the game was tough as Alashkert conceded two late goals, one in the 83rd minute and another in the 90+6th minute, giving away points.

Currently, Alashkert sit in 5th position with 38 points from 25 matches played, having scored 38 times and conceded 30 goals. Kutalia Levan, who has scored 12 goals in the league, has been instrumental in leading his team to victory.

Urartu lost their last league clash 2-1 against West Armenia. Urartu struck earlier in the first half, scoring in the 48th minute, but unfortunately, they conceded two late goals, one in the 55th minute and another in the exact 90th minute, giving away all three points. They have now lost 3 games, won 1, and drawn 2 in their last 6 games in all competitions.

Urartu sit 4th on the table with 36 points in 24 matches. They have scored 36 times and conceded 35 goals.

H2H

Focusing on the 11 games in which Alashkert and Urartu have clashed, Alashkert have won 4 times, while Urartu have won twice, with 5 matches ending in draws. The most recent match ended in a 4-2 victory in favor of Alashkert.

Expert Betting Tips

Alashkert will strive to secure all three points as they are currently in better form than Urartu, despite Urartu being ahead of them by just 1 point. The clash is expected to end with few goals, as both teams have scored 2 or fewer goals in 8 out of their last 11 games. I don't foresee Urartu finding the back of the net, as Alashkert is likely to win narrowly.
