MC Alger vs Young Africans Prediction: The visiting team will pick a point

In the CAF Champions League, MC Alger will play Young Africans at Stade du 5 Juillet. The two teams' last meetings were in 2017, with each side securing a win. How will this game unfold?

MC Alger

MC Alger settled for a goalless draw with ES Setif in their last league game, and their focus will be on securing maximum points here. However, this team also opened their Champions League campaign with a goalless draw, attempting only two shots on target. However, MC Alger's recent fixtures saw them win only one game against El Bayadh. However, they lost to CR Belouizdad in that run while drawing US Biskra. 

Young Africans

Young Africans returned to winning ways against Namungo the previous time out, an encounter that ended 0-2. In that game, two second-half strikes were enough to see this team take maximum points, with Kennedy Musonda and Pacome Zouzoua netting for them. However, the opening day encounter in this fixture saw Young Africans lose to Al-Hilal Omdurman. With three defeats in their last five games, Young Africans will hope to get things right in this game as they come in as the underdogs. 

Expert Betting Tips

Young Africans are struggling so much with consecutive defeats. However, MC Alger have not been impressive either, making this game an open one for grabs. However, Young Africans come into this game with the odds heavily stacked against them, which I do not like. While MC Alger have not been outstanding, I believe Young Africans on the road have a chance to take a point in a game where I expect a lot of defensive play.
