NA Hussein Dey form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for NA Hussein Dey so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give NA Hussein Dey much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. US Biskra will be a tough nut to crack.

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

A 1-3 defeat away at RC Arbaâ before that.

Hussein have conceded 11 goals in these away matches. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
