Armenia host Latvia in League C Matchweek 1 of the UEFA Nations League on Friday, 25 September 2026, at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium in Yerevan, having won both previous meetings between the nations in 2024.

Armenia defeated Latvia twice in 2024

The recent head-to-head record between the two sides has been dominated by Armenia. On 7 September 2024, Armenia recorded a 4-1 victory over Latvia. Ten weeks later, on 17 November 2024, Armenia travelled to Latvia and secured a 2-1 win. Across those two Nations League fixtures, Armenia produced six goals and conceded two, establishing control in the match-up.

Armenia manage squad changes for the opening group fixture

Armenia head coach Yeghishe Melikyan selected a 29-player squad for the start of the Group C2 schedule, which also features Montenegro and Cyprus. Several players were ruled out due to injury, including Vahan Bichakhchyan, Kamo Hovhannisyan, Grant-Leon Ranos, and Norberto Briasco Balekian. To counter these absences, Artur Gharibyan earned his first senior call-up, while defender David Terteryan returned to the national squad.

The opening match in Yerevan begins a busy sequence for both teams. Armenia remain at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium to face Montenegro on 28 September 2026, while Latvia travel to play Cyprus on the same date.

Our model expects an Armenia win

Our forecasting model expects an Armenia win. That call draws on Armenia's recent head-to-head record against Latvia, underpinned by the 4-1 win on 7 September 2024 and the 2-1 victory on 17 November 2024. Although missing contributors like Bichakhchyan and Hovhannisyan complicates Armenia's lineup, home advantage at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium keeps them well placed to start their Group C2 campaign with maximum points.
