Struggling Tlemcen will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying JS Saoura in the upcoming league round. It’s 16th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Insights:
  • JS Saoura have the fewest matches over the total-line (11) in Ligue 1

Tlemcen have less rest than JS Saoura in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Ligue 1 game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at NC Magra.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting JS Saoura have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-8-6 (win-draw-loss) from 18 matches.

Tlemcen are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Saoura are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
