MC Algiers face squad concerns ahead of Paradou clash
MC Algiers are grappling with injury uncertainties as they prepare to face Paradou AC at the Ali Amar stadium in Douera on the second day of Ligue 1 Mobilis. The match will be held behind closed doors.
Key players Boucherit and Draoui have already been ruled out of the fixture, adding to the concerns for the Greens and Reds.
However, there is a positive update for Zakaria Naidji, who had been doubtful due to an ankle issue. Despite the discomfort, Naidji is expected to feature in the squad for the derby.
Uncertainty still surrounds the availability of Tayeb Meziani and Sofiane Bayazid, who are nursing injuries.
Their fitness remains in question, and a final decision will likely be made closer to kick-off.
The absence of these two players could be a significant blow to MC Algiers, given their importance to the team’s attacking options.
Meanwhile, Andy Delort, who recently joined the club, has been training regularly and is in contention to be included in the matchday squad.
Head coach Patrice Beaumelle is expected to announce his final team selection tomorrow morning, just hours before the game.
MC Algiers will be looking to secure their first win of the season after a challenging start, but the potential absence of key players poses a challenge.
