Slovenia vs Armenia Betting Tips: Armenia & Under 3.5

The 24-year wait for a European Championship appearance finally came to an end for Slovenia, who impressed during their qualifying campaign by finishing second in Group H, level on points with first-placed Denmark.

Before they head off to the big tournament, Sesko and co have two manageable tests ahead of them from which they will want to extract maximum value, and judging by their recent form, they shouldn't have any trouble seeing off Armenia followed by Bulgaria four days later.

Indeed, with only two losses in their last 19 matches in any format, it is evident that Slovenia has grown significantly as a national team in recent years, and it wouldn't be surprising if they manage to secure a spot in the knockout stages of the EUROs, even though they are in a tricky group with England, Denmark, and Serbia.

Given that both of their June international friendlies will be played on home soil, Kek's men will be confident of achieving the desired results, especially since they've been invincible at Stadium Stozice, a fact that CR7 and Portugal experienced firsthand at the end of March when Slovenia handed them a 2-0 defeat.

While their Tuesday hosts prepare for their journey to the European Championship, Armenia will go on a three-month break following their second international friendly against Kazakhstan scheduled for June 7, having once again fallen short in their quest for a first-ever appearance at any major tournament.

Despite making an impressive start to the group stage by earning four points from their first four matches—toppling Wales 4-2 in Cardiff and defeating Latvia 2-1 before holding Turkey to a big 1-1 draw—Havakakan sharply fell off with just one point in their next four assignments, swiftly ending their hopes of EURO qualification.

Otherwise, Oleksandr Petrakov's men head to Ljubljana in low spirits as they deal with a miserable eight-game winless streak that has seen them end up on the wrong end of the scoreline on six occasions, including March friendly losses to Kosovo and the Czech Republic.

In such dire straits, Armenia will struggle to put up a fight against the in-form Slovenia, who particularly dominate on their home turf, meaning Sesko and his teammates should cruise to a sure victory. However, with Fatje's defense proving tough to break down, we anticipate a home victory in what promises to be a less heated affair.
