Pyunik became the champion of Armenia last season, beating its closest competitor, Noah, by only two points. It will be difficult to repeat this result, because after 12 matches of the current championship, the Yerevan team is seven points behind the leading Urartu, although it has two matches in reserve. In the last round, the hosts barely beat Yerevan CSKA (2:1).
The team failed to show itself in the Champions League, losing in the first qualifying round to Minsk Dynamo (0:1). But in the Conference League, the hosts reached the last qualifying round, but there they still failed to cope with Slovenian Celje (1:0 and 1:4). Before that, Egishe Melikyan charges managed to get past Macedonian Struga (1:2 and 3:1) and Kazakh Ordabasy (1:0 and 1:0).

Van

Van showed itself quite well at the start of the current season and even became the leader of the Premier League for a while. However, the team lacks the resources to maintain a high level of play over a long distance, so in the last matches everything started to fall into place. After the cup victory over Shirak (3:0), the team suffered three defeats in a row in the Premier League. First, the visitors lost to today opponent, Pyunik (1:3), and then lost to Urartu (1:3) and Noah (0:5).

1.55Tip and bets
The hosts have looked great in recent matches and have hardly made any mistakes, while the visitors have seen a predictable decline in their game. This should not be surprising, since the team is not yet in a position to fight for the highest places. Most likely, the losing streak of the club from Charentsevan will continue. It is hard to believe that the outsider will find arguments against the current champion, who has won four times in a row. We suggest betting on a convincing victory for the favorite.
Our forecast is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Pyunik for 2.00
Bet on total
The guests' defensive play has been poor lately. The team from Charentsevan has conceded 11 goals in three games. The hosts will probably be able to take advantage of their opponent weakness and score at least three goals.
The second bet is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.65
Bet on the first half
The hosts often rely on the initial onslaught. In three of the last four victorious matches, Pyunik went into the break leading. We believe that this match will also follow the same scenario; it is unlikely that the visitors will be able to contain the opponent attack.
Prediction: Pyunik wins in the first half with odds of 1.80
