Republic of Ireland will look to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Portugal when they take on Armenia in a crucial World Cup qualifier. The Boys in Green are desperate to record their first win of the process and we predict that they will leave their hearts on the field this time out. Festy Ebosele is a major doubt after picking up a knock against Portugal, with Mikey Johnston being ready to step up. Josh Cullen serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
Armenia, on the other hand, aim to overtake Hungary in second place in the standings, but with Ireland turning their Aviva Stadium into a real fortress, home win should be considered. In their last meeting in Dublin, Ireland defeated Armenia 3-2 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Tuesday 14 October 2025 at 19:45.
