US Souf vs ES Ben Aknoun Prediction: We expect a goal apiece from both teams

US Souf will hope to secure their third win of the season when they face off against ES Ben Aknoun at the Stade El Oued OPOW Stadium on Friday. The hosts have been impressive in recent games, and they can’t ask for a better opponent than ES Ben Aknoun who are yet to register a win on the road this season. 

Last five games: LLLWL

Omar Belatoui's men returned to their normal selves with another below-par performance against MC Oran. Despite drawing the first blood, MC Oran came back to snatch the lead as they have now won twice since their promotion. 

US Souf sit at the bottom of the log with eighteen games played, having garnered seven points from a possible fifty-four. US Souf have won once, drawn a game and lost seven times at home this season.

Bilel Dziri's men finally got a reward for their hard work in recent weeks after their victory over a robust JS Saoura side. ES Ben Aknoun have been playing some beautiful football lately but have not been getting the results they deserve. The victory over JS Saoura showed they’re not the team they used to be. In their quest to survive relegation this season, ES Ben Aknoun remained in their spot but are now a point behind the relegation zone. ES Ben Aknoun have drawn four and lost four on the road this season. 

Their last two meetings ended in a win-a-piece for both sides; however, it was ES Ben Aknoun who won (1-3) on the road recently against US Souf. The visitors have become a menace to teams lately, including their opponent, and it’ll take a miracle for the host to secure the maximum points. On the other side, US Souf are definitely going down this season as they lack enough quality to compete in Division One. 

This game doesn’t guarantee a winner, as both sides have been playing well recently, but we are confident a BTTS will surface here for 1.87.

If a winner emerges here, it’ll be the visitors who won against US Souf a few days ago. It’s a bit risky, but a win for the visitors might surface here for 2.74.

We expect both teams to settle for a halftime draw for 1.96.

Good luck!
