The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for RC Relizane so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-11 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Relizane have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the JS Saoura game.

RC Relizane might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. ASO Chlef proved too strong as RC Relizane slumped to a 4-5 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Tahar Zoughari. A crazy, crazy fixture with an abundance of goals last time out for RC Relizane, as mentioned above. 9 goals in that game, will this match be as gleeful? Relizane were so close to getting something from the game against ASO Chlef, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal five minutes into overtime.

A 0-2 defeat away at Olympique Medea before that.
