RC Relizane will pray that their home comfort is enough to get some points from this hard duel, vs potent CR Belouizdad.

Insights:
  • RC Relizane have the most conceded goals (72) in Ligue 1
  • CR Belouizdad have the most points (26) away in Ligue 1

Relizane have had a bad season and will be relegated from Ligue 1. 8-5-6 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for CR Belouizdad when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 19 matches are 19-13 (scored/conceded).

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
