Ararat-Armenia arrive with 9 points from their last 5 matches. Their recent results are: the win over Celje, a loss to Shamrock Rovers, a win over Shamrock Rovers, a loss to Riga, and a win over Riga.
The head-to-head record between these two sides stands at one match: Ararat-Armenia 2-1 Celje, played on 4 August 2026. That is the only directly relevant precedent available ahead of Tuesday's meeting.
In terms of recent form, Ararat-Armenia's 9 points from 5 matches stands above Celje's 5 points from the same number of matches. The visitors arrive at this second meeting with both the first-leg result and the stronger form record in their favour.
