All eyes will be on Stadion Z'dezele when Celje and Ararat-Armenia go head to head in the second leg of their third qualifying round tie. Despite suffering a 2-1 defeat in Armenia, Celje produced an encouraging display, registering 16 goal attempts and dominating possession with 62%. The Slovenians will be backed by a passionate home crowd and are expected to adopt an attacking approach from the first whistle. Forward Yaya Dukuly is pushing for a starting berth after making a lively impact off the bench in the first leg. Celje have found the net in each of their last ten competitive matches, averaging 2.3 goals per game.
Ararat-Armenia, though, arrive full of confidence after winning seven of their last ten matches in all competitions. The visitors will look to protect their slender advantage, with substitute hero Franca Carlos hoping to earn a place in the starting XI after netting the decisive goal in the first meeting. However, Ararat have struggled defensively away from home, conceding 2.5 goals per game across their last four away outings. With Celje expected to dominate possession again, we predict the hosts will force extra time.
Celje created far more chances in the first leg and should capitalize at home. therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Celje Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (both teams have been involved in high-scoring matches of late).
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 11 August 2026 at 19:15.
