Ittihad Tanger vs Wydad Casablanca Prediction: This fixture won’t be a walk in the park for the Red Castle

Ittihad Tanger will host Wydad Casablanca at the Stade IBN Batouta Stadium on Saturday. The visitors are unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions, while the home side will strive to halt their record.

The Hercules showed a lack of confidence when they went from two goals ahead to split points against IS Touraga on the road. Ittihad Tanger, who scored twice before the break, conceded an own goal and let themselves down in the 94th minute as US Touraga leveled.

Before then, they secured their first three points of the season, defeating struggling Berrechid. Ittihad Tanger, who have gone three games without a win, conceded at halftime but returned with two quick goals after the break. Ittihad Tanger remained in the 11th spot of the log, having picked up five points from a combined fifteen.

The Red Castle have had a rough start to the season, with three wins in five games. Wydad came from behind against a struggling Renaissance Zemamra to score three times at home. Before their encounter in the CAF Champions League, Wydad Casablanca settled for a share of the spoils on the road against RSB Berkane. Once again, they failed to convert any of their ten shots on target even though they were the best side. The Red Castle sit in the 4th spot on the table, conceding five and scoring seven times.

Wydad Casablanca are gradually improving but must be very careful against an unpredictable Ittihad Tanger.

Ittihad Tanger have won five while Wydad have recorded seven wins and five games, ending in a share of the spoils. Wydad Casablanca have been playing well in their last three games while Ittihad Tanger have also improved in that time. Both sides have defensive problems, and we think the two teams stand a chance of getting a goal apiece here for 2.12.

The last time both sides met was in the Morocco FA Cup, where Ittihad Tanger were robbed after getting the first goal while the official had to wait till 103 to gift the visitors a penalty. It’s not going to be a walk in the park for Wydad, even though they’re the favorite. We think the home side will score first for 3.41.

We expect to see more goals after the break for 2.15.

Good luck!
