The Armenia national team arrived in Podgorica on October 3, where they will complete the final stage of preparations for their UEFA Nations League Matchday 4 fixture against Montenegro.
No further changes to the squad have been officially announced following the team's arrival in the Montenegrin capital.
The Montenegro vs Armenia match will take place on October 5 at the Podgorica City Stadium and will kick off at 22:45 Yerevan time. It will be Armenia's final match of the October international window.
After three rounds, Armenia sit third in Group C2 with three points. In their previous match, Yeghishe Melikyan's side suffered a 2-0 away defeat to Cyprus.
The coaching staff will be without Edgar Sevikyan in Podgorica. The right winger will miss the match through suspension. At the same time, Artur Serobyan has served his suspension after sitting out the game against Cyprus and is available to face Montenegro.
Artem Bandikyan has also joined Armenia's list of absentees. The 21-year-old defender suffered an ankle injury against Cyprus and was forced off in the second half. He will not be available for the match in Podgorica.
Montenegro also have a suspension to deal with. Aleksa Latkovic, who scored the winning goal in the first meeting between the teams in Yerevan, will miss the match against Armenia after accumulating yellow cards.
As a reminder, Montenegro defeated Armenia 3-2 in Yerevan on September 28. Latkovic scored the decisive goal in the 89th minute.
