With their UEFA Champions League qualification hopes on the line after a 2-0 away defeat in the first leg, Riga will hope for home comforts against Ararat-Armenia in the second leg on Tuesday. This match at Skonto stadions between the hosting Latvians and the visiting Armenians is likely to be a test for both defences, and that is the crux of our prediction.
The winner of this tie will face either Floriana or Shamrock Rovers in the second qualifying round in the Champions Path, while the losers will be transferred to the UEFA Conference League Champions Path second qualifying round.
Riga bounced back from last week’s 2-0 away loss with a 3-2 away win in the Latvian Cup on Friday. That helped them get back to winning ways after the reverse fixture loss ended a 21-game unbeaten run in all competitions. Even the home form looks ominous, as Riga have won eight of their last nine home competitive matches, drawing the other.
Ararat played the first leg after two off-season friendlies, which ended in 1-1 draws. They are looking to better their last result in the Champions League, when they lost in the first qualifying round back in the 2020-21 campaign. They may want to transfer their recent away form to Europe, as Ararat have five wins from their last six competitive trips.

Our Riga FC vs FC Ararat-Armenia Prediction
Riga’s 21-game unbeaten run in all competitions (W17, D4) was halted in the first leg. The 2-0 defeat leaves the Latvians with all the running to do in this reverse leg, although they have a strong home record to boost hopes. Riga have eight wins from their last nine home matches, the last five coming in a row. While Ararat are early into their competitive action for the season, they will hope to remain in the tie.
This could be an open game, and so our Riga FC vs FC Ararat-Armenia prediction is BTTS.
