CR Belouizdad vs JS Kabylie Prediction: This evenly contested game will end in favour of the home team

The stage is set for the clash of the Titans as CR Belouizdad square off against league leaders JS Kabylie at the Nelson Mandela Stadium on Tuesday. The hosts who started off this campaign poorly are back on their feet. They’ll be keen to extend their winning streak when they host the guests who have also been at the top of their game this season. 

CR Belouizdad (9th)

Last five games: WWWWW

The Red and White waited till the 78th minute to see off a highly defensive Olympique Akbou at home. Despite winning their previous four games, and scoring more than once, their opponents were more defensive as they denied them several goal-scoring opportunities. Away from the Premier League, CR Belouizdad have been poor in the competition and will no longer continue as they failed to make the Final Cut in the group.

CR Belouizdad have scored more than a goal in four of their last five league matches and they’ll be keen to maintain such a run here. 

CR Belouizdad are yet to concede in their last three games, picking up nineteen points from a combined thirty-three. They have won three, lost a game, and drawn a match over their last five home games. 

JS Kabylie (1st)

Last five games: WDWWL

THE Canary Islanders suffered their first defeat after an eight-game unbeaten run. For this reason, coach Abdelhak Benchika resigned, and JS Kabylie are in the market for a new tactician. JS Kabylie bowed to a slim (1-0) defeat when they conceded a penalty in the 95th minute against ASO Chlef. 

Despite the loss, the Canary Islanders maintained the top spot on the standings, and they’ll be keen to bounce back. 

JS Kabylie are one of the teams tipped to challenge for the title after strengthening their squad in the transfer window. The Canaries have picked up twenty-four points from a possible forty-two as they sit at the top on the log. JS Kabylie have also won two, drawn two, and lost twice on the road this season.

Expert Betting Tips

CR Belouizdad are another team entirely in the league lately, winning five consecutive games. But this very form wasn’t enough for them to advance to the quarterfinals of the CAF Champions League. CR Belouizdad have lost their highest goal scorer, Islam Slimani who signed for a club in Belgium. On the other hand, JS Kabylie are presently going through an internal problem as most of their foreign players are requesting for their salary to be converted to their currency. Apart from that, JS Kabylie are presently without a coach, as Abdelhak Benchika resigned a few days ago. 

The hosts have dominated this encounter in recent years, and playing on their home turf will give them the edge over their guests. Moreover, JS Kabylie have lost back-to-back matches, and I think they’ll struggle against the home team.

CR Belouizdad might not really be reliable; however, I expect them to win and score less than three goals here for 1.80 at (Betway).

I also think both teams might settle for a stalemate here, as the guests will likely defend and hope to counter CR Belouizdad for 2.03 at (Bet365).
