JSM Skikda form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for JSM Skikda, who have the the worst goal difference (-25) in Ligue 1, so far with only 1 point returning home. The records show 0-1-11 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved JSM Skikda have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 13 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Amal Bou Saada game.

Skikda might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Tlemcen proved too strong as JSM Skikda slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade du 20 Août 1955.

Preceding that, the 0-6 home loss versus CR Belouizdad.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Skikda as they have only managed to score 7 times from 12 away games in the league. The Skikda manager C. Hadjar has some worries about the defense as 24 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: JSM Skikda - Saoura 1-0.
