Ben Aknoun form and stats

2 victories, 1 draw and 3 defeats. That’s what Ben Aknoun have to build on here in the Ligue 2. Two home wins in a row for Ben Aknoun bring valid hopes of a third.

A very satisfying win for Ben Aknoun against CR Beni Thour last time out as a late comeback secured the victory after trailing 0-2. The win was secured through Aarón Quirós's goal in the 83rd minute.

The Aknoun fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 6 matches. 6 goals have been conceded.

Msila form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Msila, who have the most conceded goals (24) in Ligue 2, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-6 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Msila much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Ben Aknoun will be a tough nut to crack. Msila has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Kouba wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against WA Boufarik was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 10 goals have been conceded by Msila in these games.

Head 2 Head
