Our prediction for this Nations League match:
Faroe Islands play host to Armenia at their Torsvollur in round 3 of the UEFA Nations League. Faroe Islands are eyeing their first win of the process and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field this time out. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, while all Joan Simun Edmundsson, Samuel Chukwudi, and Paetur Petersen are one yellow card away from suspension.
The Armenians, on the other hand, suffered a 2-0 loss to North Macedonia in their second group game and given their difficulties on the road, we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing something from the match. Speaking of the visiting team, both Nair Tiknizyan and Lucas Zelarayan are one yellow card away from suspension. It has to be noted that the two teams meet for the first time on the international stage.
Highlighted Team (Faroe Islands):
Faroe Islands gained membership of FIFA on July 2, 1988 and they played their first official game on August 24 against Iceland. They were beaten by the Icelanders in Akranes, but two years later they recorded probably the most significant victory in the history of the national team as they defeated Austria 1-0 in Euro 1992 qualifiers.
Faroe Islands have yet to qualify for a major tournament, but they have been making progress year by year. The Landsliðið play their home games at Torsvollur and the capacity of the venue is 6.000. Faroe Islands recorded their biggest win against Gibraltar on March 1, 2014 (4-1) and they suffered their biggest defeat in 1996 when they were beaten 8-1 by Yugoslavia in front of home fans.
In the 2016 European Championship qualifiers Faroe Islands recorded a double victory over Greece, but the minnows eventually failed to book their place at the showpiece tournament in France. The likes of Frodi Benjaminsen, Oli Johannesen, Rogvi Jacobsen, Todi Jonsson and Jakup Mikkelsen are the most notable footballers who played for the Faroe Islands national team.
