- Msila have the most conceded goals (10) in Ligue 2
Msila and USM Blida should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Msila form and stats
Two Ligue 2 home games so far for Msila, who are yet to win here at Stade OPOW. Only 0 points so far. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Msila with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Kouba game, 31 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Msila, their manager and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
In their previous game, led his Msila to a defeat in the Ligue 2 match away at MO Béjaïa. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade OPOW.
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to USM El Harrach in only three days.
At Stade OPOW, Msila has the goal stats of 3-6 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
USM Blida form and stats
It's not happening yet for USM Blida on their Ligue 2 travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Blida has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
The attacking players of Blida have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 255 minutes.
1 goal so far away for USM Blida, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.
