Match description

I back the away win (2): MC Alger are the leaders and clearly in better form – over the last 5 matches they scored 8 goals, won 4 times and averaged 2.4 points per game, while CS Constantine managed only 2 goals in that period, failed to win (0-3-2) and averaged 0.6 points per game. Constantine’s home record shows they can create chances: on average 11.08 shots and 5.62 shots on target per match with xG 1.64 at home, but their shot efficiency is only 11% and recently it has not translated into goals. The visitors, despite fewer shots (8.42 of which 4.5 on target) away, are more efficient – a 14% conversion and xG 1.33 resulted in 8 goals in five matches. Defensively the teams are similar: Constantine concedes 0.54 goals per game at home with xG against 1.01, while MC Alger concedes 0.5 goals away with xG against 1.02, but the visitors have a higher clean sheet rate (67% vs 54%). Considering the hosts’ poor run, MC Alger’s efficiency and form, and the leaders’ psychological edge, I assess the probabilities as: home 25%, draw 25%, away 50%.
