MC Oran vs MC Alger Prediction: The visitors will take advantage of their opponent's defensive lapses

On Thursday, MC Oran will face off against MC Alger at the Shahid Ahmed Zabana Stadium. The home side head here without a win on their ground in three games, while the visitors will be keen to maintain their twelve games unbeaten run.

The hosts bounced back from six consecutive losses to make a remarkable comeback against MC El Bayadh away from home. MC Oran scored with their only shot on target, which was enough to hand them their first three points on the road this season. 

MC Oran have picked up nine points from a possible thirty-nine, scoring six while conceding seventeen. Things have not been going well for the host, who sit in the relegation zone. MC Oran's problem last season was their inability to get points on the road; in fact, they managed just a win in nine games. They rely so much on their ability at home to survive relegation but have lost three consecutive games on their ground.

The Mouloudians won for the first time in four games as their three consecutive stalemates reached a standstill. MC Alger scored their second goal in four games as Mehdi Boucherit found the back of the net to fire his side to a ten-point lead at the top of the standings. Patrice Beaumelle's men settled for a (1-0) victory, which was enough for them to secure the maximum points. The Doyens are flying high in the division with three wins; two draws, and a defeat away from home. 

MC Oran have won four, while MC Alger have recorded eight wins and eight games ending in a tie over their previous twenty meetings. The Doyens ended their three games without a win when they secured the maximum points against a stiff US Biskra. At the same time, MC Oran head here with a morale booster following their victory over MC El Bayadh on the road. Even though they were lucky to have carted away the maximum points, their opponent missed from the penalty spot and some other clear-cut chances. Before now, this contest has always been an even one, but the hosts' recent run might change the pattern of their head-to-head. MC Alger will most definitely be at the top of their game here, and with three key players missing for MC Oran; bet on an away win for 1.86.

We expect MC Alger to get a halftime victory here for 2.52.

This game will produce more than two goals for 2.32.

Good luck!
