It’s still all to play for when Pyunik take on Dinamo Minsk in the second leg of the Champions League first qualifying round. These sides played to a goalless draw last week in neutral Hungary. The winner of this match will face either Ludogorets or Dinamo Batumi in the second round.
Pyunik will be well pleased to head into their home leg of this tie with the match still in the balance. They were by far the more defensive team in the away leg last week and will fancy their chances of getting a goal here on their home patch.
The Armenian champions managed just six shots at goal in the first leg and only two on target, while they also managed just 44% possession across the 90. Additionally, they were never caught offside a single time in the match and earned just one corner.
Still, with that result, Pyunik are now unbeaten in their last 10 matches in all competitions. They are also on a three-match winning streak at home and have scored two or more goals in each of their last five games on home soil.
In contrast, Dinamo Minsk will be fairly disappointed that they came away from the first leg empty-handed despite dominating the match for large periods. They managed a total of 15 shots at goal but were unable to find the back of the net.
Nevertheless, that result followed a run of seven successive victories in all competitions and the side is still unbeaten in their last 11 games, including six on the road. The last time Minsk lost an away match was at the start of May against Neman Grodno.
A key for the visitors in this match will be to keep a clean sheet and they have done exactly that in each of their last three matches and have conceded only one in their last seven games.
