Pyunik Yerevan take on the visitors Slovan Bratislava at “Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium” in the first-leg match of the 1/8 stage of the Qualification to the UEFA Europa League 2017/2018. The game will be played in Yerevan on Thursday, June 29th.
Last season Pyunik Yerevan settles on the fourth position Armenia’s Premier League with 45 points earned and 35-27 goal difference after 30 rounds. This summer the Armenians have played one friendly encounter already resulting in 1:1 draw against Shirak Gyumri. Concerning the side’s results at the home ground, in 2017 Pyunik Yerevan conducted eight clashes recording three triumphs, one draw and four defeats in them.

Slovan Bratislava finished 2016/2017 season sitting on the second place in the Fortuna Liga’s table with 57 points gained and 54-34 goal difference after 30 matchdays. This summer the Slovaks participated in two games ending with draws: 3:3 vs. Komarno and 1:1 vs. Zlin. In 2017 Slovan Bratislava got seven victories and three draws in 10 encounters on the road.
It will be the first head-to-head for Pyunik Yerevan and Slovan Bratislava. The Slovak’s football players are the favourites of the matchup as at the moment the current Pyunik Yerevan are far away from a side which line-up consisted of nearly the entire Armenia A-team and constantly sold players to the European clubs. I believe that the forthcoming encounter will be exciting with a number of goals combined by the opponents and the hosts at least will fight with the Slovaks. Both rivals scored and conceded a lot of goals in all summer clashes, thus, the teams are quite able to repeat that result in the official battle.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
