Paradou AC vs USM Alger Prediction: The visitors are dealing with fatigue

Paradou AC will host USM Alger on Wednesday at the Stade Omar Hamadi Stadium. The Super Cup winners have been on intercontinental duty in the past few days and will play their first league game on the road tomorrow. For this reason, the visitors will have to fight tooth and nail to get a point here.

Nadhir Leknaoui's men began their league campaign with a convincing share of the spoils against a strong JS Kabylie side. Paradou AC shut out the home team despite being a very young team, securing a much-needed victory to boost their morale.

The visitors had a poor start last season, winning just three of their first thirteen matches. They fought for their lives to escape relegation, winning five of their final six games.

Paradou AC will not be with their highest goal scorer, Merouane Zerrouki, who signed with CR Belouizdad, and it’ll be interesting to see how they adapt without him.

The Super Cup winner against Al Ahly will play their first league game against Paradou AC tomorrow. Following their emphatic victory over the Red Devils, USM Alger secured a point against FUS Rabat in the CAF Confederation Cup qualifier.

Despite winning the CAF Confederation Cup last season, USM Alger almost got relegated as they went six games without a victory. USM Alger finished in 12th spot with four points above the relegation Zone.

USM Alger have tweaked their team, and we expect a better performance from them this season.

Over their previous thirteen meetings, USM Alger won eleven while Paradou AC secured four victories, and two games ended in a deadlock. Paradou AC coach Nadhir Leknaoui has won his last two games against Abdelhak Benchika of USM Alger. Playing against Al Ahly and FUS Rabat in the space of one week has drained USM Alger players; they’ll have to rest some key starters for their second leg on Sunday. And after watching Paradou AC play so well in their recent game against JS Kabylie, we believe they’ll get all the points here.

We expect the home side to score before the break for 2.02.

Paradou AC are a group of young and energetic players; we believe they’ll win and score more than once for 2.40.

Good luck!
