Dudelange will welcome Pyunik to the Stade Jos Nosbaum in the second and decisive leg of the second round of UEFA Champions League qualifying on Tuesday.
The first leg in Armenia last week ended in a narrow 1-0 win for Dudelange, with Samir Hajdi's goal from the penalty spot proving to be the difference. Despite a one-goal lead, the hosts should not get too complacent heading into this fixture as Pyunik scored two goals in their away leg in the first qualifying round.
Both teams head into this fixture with a week's preparation and should be able to put in a solid display.
