Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, ASM Oran in 8th and MC El Eulma in 7th place.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting MC El Eulma 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 4-3-15 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.
ASM Oran form and stats
ASM Oran are steadily winning Ligue 2 games and points here. 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 7 games.
Stress levels are on the rise for ASM Oran's attacking players as they have now played 257 minutes without scoring in a league game.
ASM Oran's previous game was a Algeria Cup match also played at home, ending 5-0 versus Hydra. The home side are looking to build on that result. Preceding that match was a Ligue 2 defeat to RC Relizane (0-1).
As mentioned above, ASM Oran "killed" Hydra in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
ASM Oran are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. From these home matches, ASM Oran have conceded only 6 goals.
MC El Eulma form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Ligue 2 travels is 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
It might be tough going out on the road again for MC El Eulma, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Amal Bou Saada (placed 12th). A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs JSM Bejaia.
The attacking power of MC El Eulma when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 7 league matches away. As opposed to that, MC El Eulma have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
