Ireland v Armenia Betting Tips [27 September 2022]

Ireland host Armenia at the Aviva, in a battle for pride between two teams who enter the final round of games with no further motivation. The Irish were competitive but deservedly lost to Scotland at Hampden. It continued their torrid Nations League record, which has seen them claim only one win since the competition was founded. It is now three losses for the Irish in their last five, and getting back to form should be priority number one in coach Kenny’s mind. What the hosts have going for them is their positive recent home record, losing just once at the Aviva in their last eight. They have also won two of their previous three meetings against Armenia, albeit losing their latest away game against them. 

Armenia might have surprised Ireland in their Nations League opener, yet it has gone all downhill since then. Four consecutive losses have followed, with Armenia looking really short on momentum at the momentum. Their recent 5-0 home demolition to Ukraine has cut especially deep, with Armenia putting on a dismal showing in front of their fans. In addition, goals have dried up significantly in recent games. They have failed to score in three of their last five, while they have only scored three times in their last seven encounters. To top it all off, they have been poor on the road of late, being winless in their last nine and failing to score in six of those. As far as tradition goes, the Armenian outfit have lost two and won one of their three meetings against the Irish.
