Both sides are searching for their first win of the campaign, having endured contrasting starts in their opening matches. Armenia suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat to Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal. The Havakakan have lost all five matches played this calendar year.
Ireland, meanwhile, showed resilience in their opener against Hungary. Trailing 2-0 inside the first 15 minutes, the Boys in Green fought back to earn a draw thanks to goals from Evan Ferguson and Adam Idah. That result places them third in the group with one point, behind Portugal and Hungary.
Ireland have qualified for three World Cup Finals, with their best performance coming in 1990 when they reached the quarter-finals. They also made it to the round of 16 in 1994 and 2002, but have missed out on the Finals since then.
Armenia, on the other hand, have never qualified for a major international tournament. Their best campaign came during Euro 2012 qualifiers, where they finished third in their group.
