ES Sétif Poised for Seventh Algerian Championship Title
ES Sétif is on the verge of securing its seventh Ligue 1 title in Algeria, with just one victory needed on the 29th matchday of the season to confirm their championship win. The team is currently four points clear of their nearest rivals, making their title virtually assured. This could be a historic moment for the club as they approach another league triumph.
The Algerian champions are already turning their attention to the CAF Champions League group stage, with preparations underway. Kheireddine Madoui, the team’s coach, who had previously announced that he would be stepping down at the end of the season, has reversed his decision and will continue to lead the club as they aim for continental glory.
Madoui has already organized the team’s training schedule in preparation for the CAF Champions League group stage, with a planned training resumption on June 7. However, should the team fail to secure the championship on Saturday, the players’ scheduled vacation will be postponed for a week, pushing the team’s preparations back.
With the Algerian league title nearly in hand and the focus already shifting to the continental competition, ES Sétif is looking to finish the season strong and solidify its status as both a domestic and African powerhouse.
