An important duel in the bottom section of the Ligue 1, with both Paradou AC and US Biskra experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 12th and the visitors in 16th place.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a CAF Confederations Cup match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Hassania Agadir.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting US Biskra have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 4-5-15 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting JS Kabylie in just two days.
