ASO Chlef Faces Crucial Match Against MCO in Fight for Survival
While ASO Chlef continues to make strides in the CAF Cup, their domestic campaign has proven more challenging. In the Algerian Ligue 1, the club is currently embroiled in a fierce battle for survival. After a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Club Africain de Tunis in the CAF Cup round of 16, the focus now shifts to the league, where the Chléfiens are fighting to avoid relegation.
Tonight, ASO Chlef faces a crucial match against MCO in a game that could determine their fate for next season. With the club languishing near the bottom of the table, every point counts, and a win in this match is seen as essential.
Coach Mohamed Benchouia spoke to EL Watan, emphasizing the urgency of the situation: “We have three home matches, starting with the one against the MCO. Victory is essential if we want to get out of the red zone. I think the whole team is imbued with this imperative, especially since it will be supported and carried by thousands of supporters in the region.”
With home advantage and the backing of their passionate supporters, ASO Chlef will need to deliver a performance that will lift them out of the relegation zone and secure their place in Ligue 1 for next season.
