CA Bordj Bou Arreridj form and stats

CA Bordj Bou Arreridj have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Ligue 1, after 0-5-11 (16 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved CA Bordj Bou Arreridj have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 16 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the JS Kabylie game.

Arreridj are looking to quickly end their 521 minutes long goal drought in the Ligue 1.

Arreridj might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Tlemcen proved too strong as CA Bordj Bou Arreridj slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade du 20 Août 1955. Arreridj were so close to getting something from the game against Tlemcen, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime.

A 0-3 defeat away at NC Magra before that.

The visitors have scored 9 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Arreridj have conceded 29 goals in their away games.
