The two squads have prepared seriously to this crucial final hoping to clinch the cup and save their season, for both of them failed to win any continental title. Mouloudia of Algiers had been disqualified early from both Arab champions league and African clubs cup and finished in 11th in the local championship ranking, whereas United of Algiers failed to overcome the pre qualifying eliminatory round of African champions’ league. It is worth to mention in this context that USM Algiers holds the largest number of participation in the final Cup with 16 times. History, however pleads for Mouloudia which has wined the three final draws against United of Algiers; the last title has been clinched in last year final when MCA wined 2-1 Fabro the Italian coach of Mouloudia is still not sure to alienate the best player Younes. Whereas the defender Mancharé is going to officially miss from USMA. | ||||||||||||||||||
