The Algeria Super Division delivered a night of contrasting basketball stories on 18 September 2026, with road teams enjoying a productive evening across three fixtures. Rouiba CB produced the standout performance with a commanding 90-74 win at Setif, NA Hussein Dey edged a tense 67-64 battle at Binisaf CR, and WA Boufarik controlled their trip to Chabab Mordjan Oran with a 66-52 victory. Together, the results underlined how quickly momentum can shift in Algeria's top flight, where defensive discipline and efficient shooting often decide the outcome.

Setif 74-90 Rouiba CB: Rouiba Run Away With It

The headline result of the round came at Setif, where Rouiba CB put together their most complete offensive display of the young campaign. A 90-point road performance is a statement in any league, and Rouiba reached it by balancing transition scoring with patient half-court execution. Setif stayed within touching distance early, but the visitors steadily built a lead that never came under serious threat after the break.

Rouiba's advantage grew from their work on the boards and their ability to turn defensive stops into quick points. Setif found rhythm in spurts and finished with a respectable 74 points, but they were forced to chase the game for long stretches, expending energy on recovery rather than dictating tempo. The 16-point margin reflects a night when one team's shot selection was consistently cleaner than the other's.

Binisaf CR 64-67 NA Hussein Dey: A Three-Point Thriller

The closest contest of the evening came at Binisaf CR, where NA Hussein Dey survived a nervy finish to claim a 67-64 road win. Neither side managed to pull away, and the game was decided in the final possessions, with Hussein Dey making the plays that mattered when the clock became a factor.

Binisaf CR will take encouragement from a defensive effort that kept a strong Hussein Dey side to 67 points, but they will rue missed opportunities in the closing minutes. In a game decided by a single basket, free throws and late-game decision-making proved decisive. For Hussein Dey, it is the kind of narrow away victory that can build confidence and points toward the upper half of the standings.

Chabab Mordjan Oran 52-66 WA Boufarik: Defence Does the Job

WA Boufarik closed out the night with a composed 66-52 win at Chabab Mordjan Oran, a result built on defensive control rather than a scoring explosion. Holding an opponent to 52 points is a strong marker of a well-organised unit, and Boufarik's discipline at that end of the floor gave their offence the cushion it needed.

Chabab Mordjan Oran struggled to generate consistent looks and were limited to one of their lowest outputs of the season so far. Boufarik, by contrast, spread the scoring around and managed the game intelligently, protecting their lead rather than forcing the pace. The 14-point margin was secured through steady accumulation rather than a single decisive run.

What the Results Mean

With all three away teams victorious, the round highlighted the value of road resilience in the Algeria Super Division. Rouiba CB's 90-point outburst stands out as the offensive benchmark of the night, while NA Hussein Dey's narrow win at Binisaf CR shows how fine the margins are between victory and defeat in mid-table matchups.

• Biggest win: Rouiba CB, +16 at Setif (90-74)
• Closest game: NA Hussein Dey, +3 at Binisaf CR (67-64)
• Best defensive display: WA Boufarik, holding Chabab Mordjan Oran to 52 points
• Top score of the round: 90 points by Rouiba CB

Looking Ahead

For Setif and Chabab Mordjan Oran, the focus will shift quickly to correcting defensive lapses and finding more reliable scoring options. Binisaf CR can take heart from pushing a strong opponent to the wire, but will know that tight games must be converted into wins to climb the table. Rouiba CB, NA Hussein Dey and WA Boufarik all move forward with momentum, and each will look to build on an away night that went entirely their way.

The Algeria Super Division season is still taking shape, but performances like these set the tone. Road wins of this quality do not arrive by accident, and the teams that can repeat them will be the ones contending at the business end of the campaign.
