Our prediction for the match North Macedonia vs Armenia
The "Red Lions" made their debut at Euro 2020 and later came close to qualifying for the World Cup, only being stopped by Portugal in the final playoff round after an upset win over Italy. In last year’s qualifiers, they faced tough competition against Italy, Ukraine, and England, finishing fourth. The Armenian side, under the leadership of Petrakov, who previously managed Ukraine, had its moments but ultimately lost to Turkey, Croatia, and Wales.
The experienced Petrakov remains in charge in Yerevan, and the squad remains familiar, though Hambardzumyan and Grigoryan are sidelined with injuries. Milevski made no significant changes to the Macedonian squad, although goalkeeper Iliev is out with an injury.
North Macedonia kicked off their campaign in the Faroe Islands. After conceding early, they managed to equalize with a penalty after halftime. Meanwhile, Armenia performed impressively against Latvia, securing a dominant 4-1 home win.
