MC Oran host USM Khenchela in the Algerian top flight, with the home side in a very steady run of results, having gone 4 matches without defeat and collected 10 points, while the visitors sit mid-table with 5 points from the same number of games. Here the home side want three points to keep their place at the top of the table, while the visitors want points on the board to move up from the lower mid-table zone. MC Oran come in with a very stingy defence, having not conceded a single goal in the league this season, and they won 1-0 in their latest match as well. USM Khenchela just won 2-0 in their last match, but overall they are not as consistent as the home side. Looking at the averages over the last 10 matches, MC Oran clearly dominate possession and hit the target more, while the visitors play more of a waiting game. If the home side score first, the game will likely flow in one direction, because MC Oran have not conceded for a long time and the visitors do not have an attack that applies sustained pressure. What to watch is how quickly MC Oran can break down USM Khenchela's deep defensive block in the first half.
