MATCH PREVIEW
| If they want to make their meeting with Macedonia in the final round mean something, Gibraltar (W2, L2) will need to defy the odds for the third time running. With opponents Armenia winless on the road in five years (D3, L9), there is every chance of Gibraltar accomplishing their goal. |
| Tied on six points with their visitors here, the Gibraltarians are playing for a record-breaking third consecutive win. After beating Liechtenstein 2-1, and registering their first home win in 11 competitive UEFA fixtures, cautious optimism is the order of the day. |
| Tellingly, the reverse fixture saw Armenia dominate both halves in every statistical department. However, they drew a blank after a commanding performance from Gibraltar’s seasoned goalkeeper Kyle Goldwin, who saved nine attempts on goal. |
| But following this defeat, Armenia proved their worth by trouncing Macedonia 4-0 with three second-half goals, suggesting that they may have just had an off-day against Gibraltar. That win, curiously, saw them dominate the goals, but with less possession (43%) and a lower tally of completed passes. |
| Players to watch: Scoring the winner in Gibraltar’s last UNL match, George Cabrera will be full of confidence. Meanwhile, Arsenal’s Henrikh Mkhitaryan set up two goals and scored in the 4-0 win over Macedonia. |
| Stat attack: Since their famous 2-2 draw with Italy in 2013, Armenia have scored just five away goals, whilst shipping 18. |
| With 52 goals conceded since the Euro 2016 qualifications, Gibraltar have scored in just three of 12 home games. |
| Six of Armenia’s last eight matches have seen less than 2.5 goals. |
| Losers in the first-half in seven of their last nine matches, Gibraltar have the lowest goals-per-match rate (0.75) of League D/Group 4. |
