Wydad Casablanca vs Maghreb Fes Prediction: The Red Castle to close the gap at the top of the log

On Saturday, the Red Castle will square off against Maghreb Fes at the Larbi Zarouli Stadium. Since their defeat at home against RSB Berkane, Wydad Casablanca are unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions. At the same time, Maghreb Fes march here with the intention of returning to winning ways following their back-to-back losses. 

Wydad Casablanca (4th)

Last five games: DWWDD

The Red Castle moved to fourth place on the log following their stalemate against Renaissance Zemamra on the road. The result ended their six consecutive games with at least a goal, as none of their five shots at goal found the back of the net. It was a devastating performance, considering they created more than enough to at least get a goal; unfortunately, they returned home with a point in a (0-0) share of the spoils. This was after their (2-2) stalemate against AS FAR Rabat away from home. 

The Red Castle have picked up twenty-four points from a combined forty-five, scoring twenty and conceding fourteen. Wydad Casablanca have won five, drawn a game, and lost once over their previous seven home matches. 

Maghreb Fes (8th)

Last five games: DLWLL

The Diamonds are one of the most unreliable teams in the division, heading here with another defeat on the road. Maghreb Fes were reduced to nothing by their opponent, who scored twice to secure all the points. The guests were below par as they fired two shots in the entire game, even worse when Hamza Afsal received a red card. Maghreb Fes have lost five games this season and have picked up twenty-two points from a combined forty-five, scoring eleven and conceding eleven. 

Maghreb Fes have won twice, lost twice and drawn three on the road this campaign. 

Interesting Facts

The Red Castle have won seven while Maghreb Fes have managed three wins and ten games ending in a tie over their previous twenty meetings.

Expert Betting Tips

Wydad Casablanca were unlucky in their last game, and I think they deserved more than just a point. They’ll surely not make such a mistake against Maghreb Fes, and I expect them to exert dominance over their guests. Remember, Maghreb Fes handed the hosts their first defeat of the campaign, and I don’t think a coach can beat coach Rulani Mokwena twice. 

Wydad Casablanca will win and score more than a goal here, as I think they’ll be ruthless against the guests.

This game will produce more than two goals here for 2.26.

Wydad Casablanca will secure a halftime victory for 2.07

Good luck!
