Armenia vs Turkey Prediction and Betting Tips | March 25th 2023

Armenia and Turkey will get their quest for a place in the 2024 European Championship underway when they go head-to-head at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium on Saturday.

This weekend’s matchup will be an emotional one for the visitors, who are still picking themselves up following February’s devastating earthquakes.

While Armenia look to begin their qualifying campaign on a high, Saturday's game serves as an opportunity for a much-needed pick-me-up.

Oleksandr Petrakov’s men endured a poor outing in the 2022 UEFA Nations League, where they lost five of their six matches and suffered relegation as a result.

Armenia have failed to win their last seven matches across all competitions, losing six and claiming one draw since last June’s 1-0 victory over Ireland.

For Turkey, this will be their first footballing outing since February’s earthquake that rocked the nation.

Like many nations, Stefan Kuntz’s side took part in two friendlies last November, where they picked up successive wins over Scotland and the Czech Republic.

Turkey now set out to pick up a third straight victory and begin their quest for a third consecutive European Championship appearance on a high.
