Olympique de Safi vs Raja Casablanca Prediction: Title defense continues for visiting Casablanca

Stade El Massira will be the venue for the round four Morocco Botola Pro League game between Olympique de Safi and Raja Casablanca. The last meeting between these sides ended in a win for the visitors. Can the home team turn the tables in this encounter?

Olympique de Safi's last league game was against Berkane, and Olympique de Safi lost 0-2. In that game, a Youssef Mehri goal and an own goal by Yassine Kordani gave their opponent maximum points. However, prior encounters to that defeat saw Olympique de Safi go five matches unbeaten, winning three and drawing two. In the league this season, Olympique de Safi have four points from a possible nine, leaving them seated 10th in the standings. 

Raja Casablanca's last league game ended in a 3-1 defeat, and in this game, they will look to do better. In that encounter, Raja Casablanca conceded three times in the halftime and could only score one goal in the second half to reduce the deficit, thanks to Yousri Bouzok in the 79th minute. Heading into this game, Raja Casablanca have lost their first two matches of the season, with their first coming against Berkane. Heading into this game, Raja Casablanca have just one win in their last six matches, losing three and drawing two.

Raja Casablanca should win this game despite their poor start to the season. Looking at the Olympique de Safi in tough matches, they have struggled to play at the top level. This game should be a tight one in between, as Raja Casablanca have not had much luck this season, but with Olympique de Safi not good against a tough side, a bet for the visiting team is worth it.
