DWDWDD 📈

USM Alger will play in this fixture following a 1-1 Ligue Professionnelle 1 draw versus Oran.

Saoura

WWLLWW

Saoura head into the game following a 0-1 Ligue Professionnelle 1 win to defeat ASO Chlef in their last match.

Fouad Bouali's Saoura have found the back of the net a total of 7 times in the course of their latest 6 matches. The total of goals that have been scored against them during that same period comes to 5.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Checking on their prior head to head meetings dating back to 27/06/2023 shows that USM Alger have won 2 of these games and Saoura 4, with the number of drawn matches being 0.

A total of 14 goals were produced between them in this period, with 6 of them for Ouled El Bahdja and 8 coming from The Eagles. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.33.

The last league fixture featuring these clubs was Ligue Professionnelle 1 match day 5 on 20/09/2025 when the final score was Saoura 1-0 USM Alger.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Saoura should get enough chances to breach the defence of this USM Alger side, although that is unlikely to be as many as they will have scored against them.

We think that it’s going to be a 2-1 winning margin for USM Alger after 90 minutes. Expecting it to be very competitive.
