Maghreb Fes vs Union Touarga Prediction: Both teams will be pleased with a point apiece

On Saturday, Maghreb Fes will fight for a back-to-back win when they face off against Maghreb Fes at the Stade Hassan Stadium. The hosts have shown determination in their last two games this season, while the guests have been consistent since their promotion.

The hosts began their league journey with a slim (1-0) victory over Wydad Casablanca at home. The result didn’t tell the tale of what transpired, as they defended throughout the game and were gifted a penalty in the 94th minute. 

Maghreb Fes wrapped up their season in the 11th spot, picking up thirty-four points from a combined ninety. Maghreb Fes also lost the semifinal of the Throne Cup to AS FAR Rabat on their ground. 

The Diamonds used to compete for a top four in the league but have retrogressed over the years. Maghreb Fes have a new coach and acquired ten new players' services. 

The guests started their campaign with a (2-2) stalemate on their ground. It was an evenly contested game, and they could have won against a formidable opponent. 

Union Touraga had a tremendous last season after securing a continental cup ticket, and we expect them to keep up with such a performance this campaign. Union Touraga, who gained promotion last season, did the unthinkable when they finished fourth in the division.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t progress in the CAF Confederation Cup qualifying round, so they’ll now focus on making the top four. 

Over their previous four meetings, Union Touraga have won twice while Maghreb Fes have recorded a win and a game ending in a tie. Maghreb Fès were below par against Wydad Casablanca, but they managed to secure all the points. They also won against Raja BM in the Excellence Cup. At the same time, Union Touraga stood their ground against FUS Rabat, settling for a (2-2) share of the spoils at home.

Both teams have shown positive signs this season, and we think none of them will sit back and defend. We believe this game will produce a BTTS for 2.05.

We anticipate a share of the spoils before the break for 1.88.

We expect to see goals in both halves for 2.20.

Good luck!
