MC Alger vs CR Belouizdad Prediction: This highly anticipated game will be decided after ninety-minute

After their decent season, MC Alger will be poised to win the double when they face off against one of the strongest teams in the division, CR Belouizdad, at the July 5 Stadium on Friday. The Mouloudians will be determined to win their eighth Algerian Cup title, the same as CR Belouizdad. The guests have had a terrible season, and they’ll be poised to put a smile on the faces of their supporters. 

MC Alger

The Mouloudians, who were crowned the champions, had a pretty solid campaign. They lost just three games in the entire season, scoring fifty-five and conceding twenty goals. 

MC Alger knocked out CS Constantine in the semifinals to book their spot here, scoring twice and conceding once. 

Patrice Beaumelle's men have had a smooth run in this tournament, heading here without a penalty shootout. 

The Doyens have won two, drawn three and lost once over their last seven meetings.

CR Belouizdad

Marcos Paqueta's comrades have had a tough season, failing to defend their Algeria League title for the first time since 2019. CR Belouizdad wrapped up their season in the second spot after a hard-fought victory over JS Saoura in the final game of the season. 

CR Belouizdad have not lived up to their expectations in this competition and were lucky to have advanced to the Algerian Cup semifinals after sharing the spoils against USM Alger. Marcos Paqueta's job could be on the line if he fails to secure the Algerian Cup. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous twenty meetings, MC Alger have won four while CR Belouizdad have managed six victories and ten games ending in a tie. MC Alger are the joint most successful team in this competition, having won it eight times. They have had a successful season, and they’d love to crown it up by securing this trophy. At the same time, CR Belouizdad have not had it easy this campaign, finishing in second place after winning their last game of the season. They’ll be keen to compensate their supporters with the trophy, and we expect them to fight here. 

CR Belouizdad have dominated these fixtures over the years, but they’ve been below par this season. MC Alger boast of a more quality squad than the guests, but this doesn’t matter in this highly competitive encounter. We think this game will end in a share of the spoils as both teams will be careful not to concede first.

We expect a total of under 1.5 goals here for 2.27.

We think MC Alger will claim the trophy since they’ve been the better team lately. 

Good luck!
