Raja Casablanca vs AS FAR Rabat Prediction: The Green Eagles will extend their decent run against the guests

In this highly competitive CAF Champions League opening fixture, the Green Eagles will face off against AS FAR Rabat for the second time on their home turf this season as they hope to get off to a flying start in a group of death. 

After defeating Ghana outfit Samartex in the qualifying round, the Green Eagles head into this competition with the aim of winning their fourth CAF Champions League title. 

Ricardo Sa Pinto's men have failed to win any of their last six games in all competitions, a run marred with their ineffective display in front of goal. The Green Eagles, who won the Botola Pro title by just a point, have had a poor start to the season. 

Raja Casablanca still remain a top team regardless of their recent woes and we hope to see a new look side in this competition tomorrow. 

The Royal Army struggle continues despite changing coaches as they head here with a (1-1) stalemate against Union Touarga on their home turf. Hubert Velud, a former Burkina Faso head tactician who took over from their former Poland coach, has managed one win in four matches. 

AS FAR Rabat who kicked out Sudanese side Al Merreikh in the qualifying round, will be poised to make it out of the group. 

Over their last twenty meetings, Raja Casablanca have won seven while AS FAR Rabat have recorded four victories and nine games ending in a tie. Raja Casablanca have not lost to the visitors in their last nine meetings, including their recent meeting a few weeks ago. 

Raja Casablanca have shown some signs of improvement in recent games, and playing on their home turf gives them an advantage over their opponent.

The Green Eagles are aware that every point matters in this group, and I’m backing them to at least secure a point here; bet on a home win or draw and under 2.5 goals for 1.93.

I expect this game to produce more goals after the break for 2.20.

This game will end in a total of under 1.5 goals for 2.45.

Good luck!
