USM Khenchela and CS Constantine meet often enough to know each other's game well, especially their last meeting, which ended in a share of the points. This time it is different in that USM Khenchela have not won a league game at all, while CS Constantine are climbing into second place in the table. The hosts have gone 3 league matches without a win, taking just two points from games that both ended in a share of the points, and they lost their most recent home match by a 0-1 score. Their attack is still blunt, scoring just one goal from three matches. CS Constantine arrive in the opposite state: they have won two of their first four matches of the season, and their most recent match saw them crush their opponents 4-0. The visitors' attack is therefore clearly the hotter of the two. This game is likely to play out with CS Constantine as the side opening up and attacking, because they have the better attacking quality and need three points to hold their position in the table. USM Khenchela are likely to sit deep and wait for the chance to counter from the visitors' mistakes, a formula that has kept them alive in several matches before this.
