Season ticket holders haven’t seen too many victories this season, with ES Sétif languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting JS Saoura will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
ES Sétif form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here as ES Sétif have scored 12 goals to get 13 points from 6 games. The overall stats in the Ligue 1 are 4-1-1 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for ES Sétif bring valid hopes of a third.
ES Sétif's previous game was a Ligue 1 match also played at home, ending 4-0 versus Ain M'lila (placed 5th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Prior to that, an away loss at CS Constantine.
As mentioned above, ES Sétif "killed" Ain M'lila in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (12 in 6 games), ES Sétif's attacking play is working. Defensively ES Sétif have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (3 in 6 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
JS Saoura form and stats

M. Hammia was the last player to score for the away team. JS Saoura haven't scored a league goal in the last 408 minutes.
The manager L. Bougherara was unhappy after their last game, a Ligue 1 match played at their home ground Stade du 20 Août 1955. JS Saoura suffered a 0-1 loss to USM Bel Abbes (placed 7th). Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting CR Belouizdad's place.
Goals are few and far between in JS Saoura's away league games. Only 3 goals from 6 travels. JS Saoura have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.
