Head-to-head · Written before the match

In the 2024/25 season, Armenia beat Latvia 4-1 on 7 September 2024, then Latvia lost 1-2 to Armenia on 17 November 2024. These results constitute a favorable precedent for Armenia, but their prédictive valeur is limited by the new edition, the different context, and squads or coaching staffs that may have changed.

Absences and returns

Armenia announced on 17 September 2026 the injury withdrawals of Vahan Bichakhchyan, Finn Geragusyan, Hrant-Leon Ranos, David Davidyan, Kamo Hovhannisyan, Hovhannes Harutyunyan, Henry Avagyan and Norberto Briasco Balekyan. On 24 September 2026, Yeghishe Melikyan indicated that Ararat Monroy would not come, that Alexandre Hovhannisyan’s return had not materialized and that Julio Bueno was expected to play, but not as a right-back; the individual details should be treated with caution.

For Latvia, the Federation confirms Paolo Nicolato and a squad including notably Rihards Matrevics, Antonijs Černomordijs, Andrejs Cigaņiks, Raivis Jurkovskis and Vladislavs Gutkovskis, without confirming their physical condition or whether they will start. Verified suspensions and other absences are information unavailable.

Context & news

The match is the first matchday of Group C2 of the 2026/27 Nations League, on 25 September 2026 at 16:00 UTC at Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium in Yerevan; the group also includes Cyprus and Montenegro, with no standings or first-leg score at this stage. Favorable scenario for Armenia: home advantage, the 2024 precedents and the announced availability of attacking players such as Spertsyan support a proactive approach.

Opposing scenario: absences and uncertainty on the right side may hinder progression and transition coverage, while a compact Latvia could attack the spaces behind the full-backs. No precise set-piece, box-defending or pressing mechanism has been confirmed.
