Armenia and Latvia open Group C2 of the 2026/27 UEFA Nations League in Yerevan on September 25. Armenia have home advantage at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium, but their preparation has been shaped by a long injury list. Yeghishe Melikyan's announced squad is without Vahan Bichakhchyan, Finn Geragusian, Grant-Leon Ranos, David Davidyan, Kamo Hovhannisyan, Hovhannes Harutyunyan, Henry Avagyan and Norberto Briasco Balekian because of injuries.
Even with those absences, Armenia retain several of their main technical players. Eduard Spertsyan remains the central creative reference, with Ugochukwu Iwu, Nair Tiknizyan, Georgi Harutyunyan, Styopa Mkrtchyan, Edgar Sevikyan and Narek Grigoryan also selected. The forward group includes Artur Miranyan, Artur Serobyan, Zhirayr Shaghoyan, Narek Hovhannisyan, Artur Gharibyan and Arayik Eloyan.
Latvia coach Paolo Nicolato selected 26 players for the extended September-October window. Rihards Matrevics, Roberts Savaļnieks, Andrejs Cigaņiks, Raivis Jurkovskis, Antonijs Černomordijs and Daniels Balodis provide experience, while Oskars Vientiess and Denniss Cirkins entered the camp without senior caps. Latvia therefore combine an established defensive core with some new pieces.
A projected Armenia XI is Ognjen Čančarević; David Terteryan, Sergey Muradyan, Georgi Harutyunyan, Nair Tiknizyan; Ugochukwu Iwu, Narek Aghasaryan; Edgar Sevikyan, Eduard Spertsyan, Narek Grigoryan; Artur Miranyan. The XI is expected rather than confirmed and Armenia's injury list makes late team news especially important.
Statistical coverage is partial: a complete 22/22 Statistical Core with comparable current-cycle HOME data for Armenia and AWAY data for Latvia, including xG, xGA, shots, shots on target, possession and corners, is unavailable in the cited material. Those metrics remain unavailable rather than being estimated.
Market price and value
At published odds of 1.53, the raw implied probability is 65.4%, calculated as 1 / 1.53 = 0.6536 before bookmaker margin. That is the market-price threshold, not a historical hit rate or a separate PSP probability forecast.
Conclusion
The prediction is Armenia or Draw (1X) + Over 1.5 Goals at 1.53. Home advantage and Armenia's remaining creative quality support the double-chance leg, while the two-goal threshold allows several controlled scorelines. The principal risk is Armenia's unusually large group of injury absences, which could weaken both their control of the match and their ability to respond if Latvia score first.
Prediction: Armenia or Draw (1X) + Over 1.5 Goals Odds: 1.53
