    Oct 3 2014

    Published: Monday 2 June 2014, 19.00CET Armenia take on Serbia
    in their opening UEFA EURO 2016 qualifying Group I fixture, still
    looking for a first international goal against their opponents in
    their fourth encounter.

    A first senior international goal against their opponents would be a
    start for Armenia as they take on Serbia in their opening UEFA EURO
    2016 qualifying Group I fixture.

    Match background â~@¢ Armenia's record in three matches against Serbia
    is W0 D1 L2 (W0 D1 L1 at home, W0 D0 L1 in Serbia).

    â~@¢ The sides' only competitive meetings to date came in UEFA EURO
    2008 qualifying. Javier Clemente's Serbia beat Ian Porterfield's
    Armenia 3-0 in Belgrade on 11 October 2006, Dejan StankoviÄ~G (53p),
    Danko LazoviÄ~G (61) and Nikola ŽigiÄ~G (90+2) on target, the latter
    after Rafael Nazaryan was sent off for a second bookable offence
    (76). With Vardan Minasyan in charge, Armenia drew the return fixture
    0-0 in Yerevan on 13 October 2007.

    â~@¢ More recently, Zdravko KuzmanoviÄ~G (15) and Branislav IvanoviÄ~G
    (30) scored aganst Minasyan's Armenia in a 2-0 friendly win in
    Yerevan for Serbia, led by caretaker coach Radovan Ä~FurÄ~MiÄ~G on
    28 February 2012.

    â~@¢ Armenian and Serbian club sides have met in four UEFA club
    competition matches, with the Serbian sides having the better of them
    - W2 D2 L0 (W1 D1 L0 at home, W1 D1 L0 in Armenia). Most recently,
    FK Partizan eliminated FC Shirak on away goals in the 2013/14 UEFA
    Champions League second qualifying round after two draws - 1-1 in
    Gyumri, 0-0 in Belgrade.

    â~@¢ In the 14 games between Armenian and Serbian sides recorded on the
    UEFA database - including club games, youth games, and senior national
    team matches - a Armenian side has yet to record a victory (D4 L10).
