Banants II and Noah II played out a 2:2 draw in the First League's Regular Season round two on 10 August 2026. Both sides entered the fixture sitting level on six points after six matches, though the hosts occupied ninth place while the visitors held eighth. The result leaves them locked together in the standings, with neither team able to pull ahead.
Recent form suggested a tightly contested affair. Banants II had dropped points in their last outing, losing 2:0 to Olympia Yerevan on 3 August, while Noah II suffered a narrow 3:2 defeat against Mika on 4 August. Both teams came into this match looking to build momentum after those setbacks, and the scoreline reflected that cautious approach.
By then, both clubs had accumulated identical records: one victory, three draws, and two defeats across their opening six games. The draw extends Noah II's run of unbroken matches without defeat at home, while Banants II's away form remains inconsistent. They had drawn 0:0 with each other earlier in the season on 11 May, and this encounter followed a similar pattern of mutual resistance.
The result means both sides remain in the lower half of the table, though the gap between them and any realistic promotion contention remains substantial. With only one win between them after six rounds, neither team has yet found the consistency required to climb higher. The points shared keep the standings exactly as they were before kick-off.
Noah II's away record continues to show vulnerability, having lost to Mika and drawn with Banants II in recent visits. Banants II's home performances have been similarly mixed, alternating between draws and defeats. The table goes out of the window in these games, and both clubs will need to find a way to convert draws into victories if they want to avoid staying stuck in mid-table purgatory.
