Finland News and Form – Can the Finns get an important home win?
It is the defence of second place in the table that Finland will have on their minds the most in this one. There is only one qualification spot left in Group J with Italy having already done enough to get through. Finland have a two-point lead over Armenia so using home advantage to open up a five-point gap would be massive. Finland have taken a W4 L3 record in this qualification campaign, netting 9 goals in total.
It has been back to back defeats for Finland though after going down heavily 4-1 in Bosnia on the weekend. That was a heavy blow which the Finns took there. Their home form is good however, as they have won all but one of their last seven on home turf (L1). Each of the victories in that sequence came with a clean sheet as well. The one loss was against Italy. Can Finland deliver themselves three points?

Armenia News and Form
It is a W3 D1 L3 record that Aremina have picked up in this campaign and they have scored four goals more than Finland have done. They have, however also conceded four goals more than Finland have done. They really did drop the ball on the weekend though in failing to hold onto a lead out in Liechtenstein. Armenia had to settle for a 1-1 draw there. In such an easy fixture for them, that was two valuable points thrown away.
What that will do for punters is also raise questions about their ability to win this game. Albania have suffered one defeat in their last five games, which was a loss against the Italians. In their W3 D1 L1 record in their last five games, Armenia have scored at least two goals in each victory. They have been patchy with their form on their travels, taking a W2 D3 L3 in their last eight. Armenia are on a six-match scoring streak away from home though. They have conceded in each of their last 12 away games.

Finland v Armenia Predictions
Draw: The draw in the match outright looks the best option to roll with this one. While they both have to worry about what Bosnia may do still, this is a game that neither will want to lose. It’s hard to see Armenia having enough on the road to take it though. Draw.
