The glass has been half empty for Tlemcen so far, and you could say the same about RC Relizane. The bottom dwellers have the opportunity for some vital points here.
- Tlemcen have the fewest scored goals (8) in Ligue 1
- RC Relizane have the fewest clean sheets (1) in Ligue 1
These are hustling days for the team playing at home, as they played only four days ago in the Ligue 1. That game was an away game at NC Magra, so at least Tlemcen are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Tlemcen form and stats
With 2 Ligue 1 wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their home games, Tlemcen are certainly not brimming with confidence.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 210 minutes without scoring a league goal. Benamraoui was the last player to find the net.
Tlemcen faced defeat in their previous match, away at NC Magra (0-1).
A defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at CR Belouizdad.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Tlemcen have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won two times, drawn one and lost one.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Tlemcen, as the Ligue 1 home game vs MC Alger is only three days away.
Tlemcen have scored 6 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Tlemcen have conceded 13 from these games.
RC Relizane form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for RC Relizane so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-7 (win-draw-lose). It's looking increasingly bleak for Relizane who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. NA Hussein Dey was the last time a defeat was avoided.
This match can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Paradou AC with 0-2 on the scoreboard.
A 1-2 loss hosting NC Magra before that.RC Relizane are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, four draws and five defeats. From a total of twelve matches.
After this away game RC Relizane return home for a Ligue 1 game against US Biskra. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Relizane are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 9 away games. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The RC Relizane manager Boutaleb has some worries about the defense as 20 goals have been conceded in these travels.
