USM Khenchela vs CR Belouizdad Prediction: The home side won’t succumb to pressure

On Wednesday, the Algerian Premier League continues as USM Khenchela lock horns against CR Belouizdad at the Stade Amar Hamam Stadium. The Algerian league has always been dominated by CR Belouizdad, with either ES Setif, JS Kabylie, or CS Constantine being runner-up. There are always some twists and turns in the race for the top four, and we expect the unexpected, just like the previous season. 

The hosts began their journey with a (1-1) stalemate against JS Saoura on the road. USM Khenchela opened the score line in twenty-seven minutes, but the hosts responded after the break and missed a penalty in a share of the spoils on the road. 

USM Khenchela picked up thirty-nine points from a possible ninety and were three points above the relegation zone. After a tough season, USM Khenchela have signed more than ten players to bolster their squad this season. 

The former Algerian league champions CR Belouizdad started their new season with a stalemate against ES Setif on their home ground. It was a disappointing performance from CR Belouizdad, who have struggled to convert their chances since the arrival of coach Corentin Martins. CR Belouizdad have played five games in all competitions this season, winning three, losing once, and settling for a tie. 

CR Belouizdad have added some seriously attacking-minded players to their squad, and with their French coach in charge, Corentin Martins, they’ll definitely challenge for the title this season. 

USM Khenchela have won three and lost once against CR Belouizdad over their last four meetings. No other team has terrorized the guests like USM Khenchela in recent years. CR Belouizdad have had issues finding the back of the net and are not the team they used to be. 

USM Khenchela will approach this game in high spirits following their stalemate on the road. They will be keen to continue their fine form against the guests, and we expect them to win or draw and get a BTTS for 3.00.

We are confident the hosts won’t lose this game; bet on home win either half for 2.11.

We expect to see a BTTS and over 2.5 goals for 2.50.

Good luck!
