Both clubs typically approach games with a controlled tempo, critical in matches of such high stakes.

Prediction: Both Teams Not To Score In 1st Half

With an 88% probability, it is highly probable that both teams will not find the net before halftime. This is consistent with the defensive structure displayed by each side and the importance of not conceding early. Expect both coaches to emphasize stability and concentration from the kickoff, leading to a cagey opening 45 minutes.

Prediction: Both Teams Not To Score In 2nd Half

The likelihood of both teams not scoring in the second half remains very high at 79%. Even as the game opens up slightly after halftime, the disciplined rearguards suggest that goals will be at a premium until the closing stages. This reinforces the view that even after tactical adjustments, breakthroughs will be rare.

Prediction: Home Team To Score In 2nd Half

With a 75% chance, CR Belouizdad are favored to score in the second half. The slight edge for the hosts reflects their strong record when playing at home and their tendency to press forward more assertively after the interval, especially if the game remains deadlocked deep into the match.

Prediction: Over 1.5 Goals

There is a strong 71% probability the match will feature over 1.5 total goals. However, given both teams’ defensive metrics and average goals scored of 1.63, any scoring surge is more likely to take place in the latter stages, once tactical caution eases.

Prediction: Away Team To Score In 2nd Half

MC Alger possess a 67% probability to register on the scoreboard after halftime. They often show improved attacking play later in matches, exploiting spaces as the opposition fatigues, making a second-half goal plausible.

Prediction: Home Team Not To Score In 1st Half

CR Belouizdad’s chance of being held scoreless in the first 45 minutes is also 67%. This highlights the expected slow start and the effectiveness of MC Alger’s first-half defending, setting up a more dynamic and open second half.

Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

A 63% probability for under 2.5 goals underscores the expectation of a low-scoring affair, which is typical in high-pressure encounters between well-drilled teams. The average total goals of 2.25 reinforces a projected final scoreline ranging narrowly around two goals.

Prediction: Both Teams Not to Score

The match shows a strong tendency (63%) for at least one side to fail to score. Defensive resilience, especially in cup or rivalry scenarios, often results in one team emerging with a clean sheet.
