FC Riga host Ararat-Armenia at Skonto Stadium this Wednesday in the first leg of their UEFA a.WChampions League qualifying tie.. Riga arrive as the in-form side domestically, having won five straight matches and scored 14 goals in that stretch. While Ararat-Armenia's own scoring form as Armenian champions gives our prediction real weight behind a BTTS selection.

Riga FC head into this leg in outstanding form as 2025 Latvian champions and current 2nd-spot holders. Their attacking form has especially been relentless, sitting among the very top of the league in goals scored (65). And that blistering form in front of goal has rewarded Riga with 11 victories in their last 13 games, recording not a single loss.

Riga also netted in 14 of those 15 games, and doing so against Ararat-Armenia looks more like  a routine run. But the visitors are no pushovers, as they’ve gone unbeaten in 12 of their last four competitive games. Their latest bout outside friendlies was a 1-0 win at Gandzasar back in May, and that marked goals in 12 of Ararat’s last 15 competitive matches.

We’re talking Champions League football, so you already know these two will be giving their all. Their scoring form promises indicates we’ll get goals from both sides.
