JS Saoura vs Magra Prediction: Bottom spot encounter will be close

At Stade 20 Août 1955 Béchar, JS Saoura will play Magra in round 8 of the Algeria Ligue 1 matches. Heading into this game, the visiting team won the last time these two teams faced. Will things turn around this time?

JS Saoura's last league game was against El Bayadh, and they won. In that encounter, Riyane Akecem's lone strike was the difference, securing maximum points for JS Saoura. However, that win was JS Saoura’s second win in recent times, defeating ES Setif in that run. This season, JS Saoura have seven points from six matches, leaving them seated in the 14th spot. In those matches, JS Saoura scored seven goals while conceding nine. 

Magra are coming off a defeat against Khenchela and will hope for a win this time. In that game, Reda Boumechra's lone strike proved to be the difference, handing them their second defeat in their last five, having lost to El Bayadh in a prior encounter. In the meantime, Magra's lone win recently was against CR Belouizdad. In other games, Magra drew US Biskra and ES Setif, encounters that ended 2-2 and 0-0. With six points, Magra sit 7th spot, scoring three goals and conceding eight. 

Saoura will not disappoint in this fixture, and I trust they will win. Magra and JS Saoura have struggled this season; there is a lot to expect in this fixture as they will focus on securing maximum points. With the poor defensive play of the two sides, we could expect goals here, while the home team wins.
