PICK – AWAY
This game seems meaningless to many people , but to then teams involved
it means the world !
The chance to not finish in the expected 7th wooden spoon position
is of great importance to these teams , and i see a clear way to make
profit out of this game .
Andorra have picked up just 4 points , their sole win coming in a 1-0
home win over macedonia , a game thought throughout europe to be fixed
after heavy betting patterns on 1-0 ,and big money for andorra , and
also in the home leg when massive amounts were seen laying macedonia
and that game ended 0-0 , im not saying that the games were fixed
,but the macedonian public said this was the case ! and these were
the only points andora have picked up ,suffering some heavy defeats
along the way , 8-1 vs czech rep,4-0 vs holland, 3-0 vs finalnd , etc
Armenia are no great shakes themselves , but when losing have lost
narrowly to some great teams , just 1-0 vs holland ,and 2-0 vs
holland,1-0 vs romania ,2-0 vs finland, 1-0 vs cezh republic
Andorra`s problem is scoring goals , scoring just 4 in the 11 games and
conceding a massive 31 , wheras armenia have scored 8 and conceded 25
The mindset of these 2 teams will be crucial as to the type of game
this is .The table has andorra in 6th on 5 points and armenia in 7th
on 4 points , meaning a win for armenia is the only way to overtake
their rivals ,and if they finish bottom it will be seen with great
shame in armenia , so you can be sure they will be going for it at some
stage ! Wheras andorra only need a draw to stay in 6th , and as their
attack is very limp at best , you can be sure they`ll be playing their
usual style of 11 men behind the ball and trying hang on for a 0-0 !
The first game in armenia was a 2-1 win for the armenians , but
that doesnt tell the whole story as armenia took an early lead and
were in total control until an andorra corner led to a scramble in
the penalty box and a deflected equaliser wrong footed the armenian
keeper , then attack after attack from the armenians finally ended
with a 71st minute winner , afterwards they were in total control !
report from 1st game on link below>
I expect a similair game tomorrow , with armenia bossing from start
to finish ,and with the odd andorra long ball up front tactic keeping
them on their toes ! I wouldnt rule out 0-0 here ,as andorra held
finalnd to a 0-0 ,and armenias attack isn’t the best.
