MC Oran vs Khenchela Prediction: A competitive encounter is expected

Miloud Hadefi Stadium will host the Egyptian Premier League encounter between MC Oran and Khenchela. The last meeting between these two teams ended in a draw. How will this game unfold?

MC Oran's last league game was against Olympique Akbou, and they lost. In that game, MC Oran conceded two late goals, having levelled the score in the 83rd minute through Merounane Boussalem’s strike. However, this team went unbeaten in four matches prior to that defeat, picking up wins over Kabylie, Constantine, and ES Setif while settling for a draw with Paradou AC. With 14 points, MC Oran sit 5th in the standings, scoring ten goals and eight conceded.

Khenchela returned to winning ways the previous time out against Constantine, an encounter that ended 1-0. In that game, at the last minute, Reda Boumechra’s strike was the difference, sealing maximum points for them. However, this team has won two of their previous five games, defeating Magra in that run. Yet, their encounters against Paradou AC and Kabylie ended in defeats. With 12 points from 9 matches, Khenchela sit 7th in the standings, scoring six goals and conceding eight. 

I will back Oran with confidence in this game. First, at home, the home team has a good advantage. Also, their performances this season have been convincing, and I do not expect them to struggle here. While Khenchela have been a tough side for the home side, I do not expect them to settle for less either. This is going to be competitive, with both teams playing so well in offence. Bet on goals for both sides, with Oran winning being the first option.
