The third preliminary round of the Algerian Cup, under the Annaba regional league, saw teams from the Guelma province secure two spots in the final qualification round. Nasr Fedjoudj moved forward after a 3-2 victory over US Boukhadra, decided by a late penalty from Ghalmi; they will now face the winner of the match between ES Souk Ahras and US Sedrata. Meanwhile, Chabab Heliopolis overcame an early deficit against Olimpi Boumahra to win 2-1 with goals from Berri and Hemissi, setting up a final clash against US Annaba. A third representative from Guelma could still qualify depending on the result of today's match between Amel El Bouni and their opponent.
