On Thursday evening, in the Armenian capital at Yerevan, there's UEFA Europa League action at Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium, where Ararat-Armenia and Alkmaar will go up against each other. After three games of the League Phase, the hosts are close to the bottom of the standings having lost three out of three. The visitors find themselves in a much better position, but they too could do with improving having won just one out of three.
Ahead of what is an interesting clash, one that the visitors will be aiming to win, 'Both Teams to Score' stands out as a reasonable betting option, especially for those looking to build a juicy Europa League parlay. The hosts created a positive offensive impression away from home in the Europa League last week, especially on the break, so they should get chances against an Alkmaar side that isn't perfect at the back. At the same time, though the away team should enjoy themselves offensively given that we've seen little from the hosts in terms of defensive security.

Our FC Ararat-Armenia vs AZ Alkmaar Prediction
Both teams enter this game having scored last time out in their respective leagues, as well as last time out in the UEFA Europa League. Both teams also conceded last time out in this competition, which bodes well.
In truth, we saw enough offensive from both teams in the UEL last week to suggest that there will be goals for both here. On the defensive evidence displayed by both last week, the chances of a game where both find the net appear to be a little greater than odds of -149 would have us believe.
