These teams have met only four times in their history. In those four matches, Armenia secured two wins and Monengero one. However, in Armenia, the hosts won both games - 1:0 in 2022 and 3:2 in 2016.
When it comes to the number of goals, three out of four h2h games ended with three or more goals, while both teams scored in the same number of games (3).
Armenia team overview
Armenia have never appeared in any major tournaments, and that will hardly change any time soon. They were atrocious in the previous WC Qualifiers, finishing 4th (last) in the Group with Portugal, Ireland, and Hungary. Yes, it was a challenging Group, but a -16 goal difference definitely shows just how far they are.
In the UEFA Nations League, they had a chance to move from League C to B last campaign but got dominated by Georgia in the Playoffs on a 9:1 aggregate. However, in the current group with Montenegro, Cyprus, and Latvia, we believe they have a real chance to move up, especially if they secure a win over Montenegro in the next game.

Montenegro team overview
Montenegro are #80 on the FIFA World Ranking List and have never appeared in any of the major tournaments in their 20-year history. In the previous World Cup Qualifiers, the "Falcons" finished 4th in a group with Croatia, Czechia, Faroe Islands, and Gibraltar. Generally, a pretty underwhelming performance.
In the UEFA Nations League, they got relegated from League B to League C. Judging from the previous campaign, it was obvious they are not good enough to compete with the teams from League B.
The team is without one of their most important defenders - Adam Marušić. The 33-year-old is dealing with a hamstring injury, and Milan Roganovic should start at right full-back as a replacement.

Prediction
Armenia went under 2.5 goals in the first game against Latvia, winning 2:0. Moreover, they are a team that mostly plays low-scoring games, going under 2.5 goals in six out of the past eight across competitions - 75%.
Montenegro had some good performances lately, but they are a team that often struggles on the road. In the past 12 road games across competitions, they have lost nine times, while scoring one or zero goals in ten of those! So, suddenly expecting a great road performance against Armenia doesn't seem very likely. Moreover, Armenia isn't a great offensive team either. They've scored one or zero goals in seven of the past eight games - 87.5%.
Considering all the above, we firmly believe an under 2.5 goals bet is the safest option for this UEFA Nations League tie.
4 Reasons why we should see fewer than three goals
- Armenia went under 2.5 goals in six out of the past eight games across competitions
- Armenia scored one or zero goals in seven out of the past eight games
- Montenegro scored one or zero goals in 10 out of the past 12 road games
- The last h2h game in Armenia finished 1:0 for Armenia
