JSK – USMA: who dominates the history of their encounters?

For the rescheduled first matchday of Ligue 1, JS Kabylie will host USM Alger this Monday at 5:45 p.m. at the Hocine-Aït-Ahmed stadium. The fixture is already set to be intense, made even more symbolic by the return of Abdelhak Benchikha to an environment he left nearly a year ago following a tense resignation.
