Wydad Casablanca vs Rivers United Prediction: An exciting game with lots of goals

Defending Champions Wydad Casablanca will welcome Nigerian-based side Rivers United to their Stade Mohamed V in Casablanca on Sunday. It will be a miracle for the visitors to survive at halftime here.

The three times CAF Champions League winners were magnificent in the just-concluded season after defeating Al Ahly (0-2) in the finals. Having conquered the continent, Wydad also secured their domestic league as Raja Casablanca watched on.

Wydad were stunned in Nigeria last week after defying all odds to secure a win. Despite going ahead a few minutes into the game, the home side responded twice to secure a deserved victory.

Not seeing the defending champions in the group stage this season will be outrageous.

The Pride of Rivers were crowned the champions after wrapping the season with seventy-seven points. They were formidable in all their matches last season, breaking the league record of seventy-three points in a season. They racked up twenty-two points away from home in division, one of the best records in the history of the tournament.

The last time they were in this competition was in 2017; after winning the first round, they were knocked out by Sudan's

Rivers won the first leg and just needed to defend all through to survive this hurdle.

Morocco isn’t the best place to be for a visiting country, the 60000 capacity will be filled with lousy Moroccan football lovers, and it will only take a miracle for Rivers to get on the score sheet here. Bet on a home win and score more than a goal for 1.75.

A correct score of (3-0) for 5.80 might surface here.

This is the end of the road for the visitors, and we are not sure they will survive at halftime here. Bet on Wydad's halftime win for 2.01.

Good luck!
