FUS Rabat vs Union Touarga Prediction: I will back the home team to win

At Stade Municipal Kenitra, FUS Rabat will take on Union Touarga in round 16 of the Morocco Botola Pro League. The home team comes in as the favourite, while the visiting Touarga get the underdogs role. How will this game unfold? Below, I will provide match previews and offer betting opportunities. 

FUS Rabat

FUS Rabat played COD Meknes the previous time out and secured a 5-1 win. In that game, Ayoub Mouloua netted three times in the first half to put his side in the lead but then scored an own goal to reduce the deficit for their opponent. However, second-half strikes from Salaheddine Benyachou and Oussama Raoui were enough to see this team take maximum points. 

Heading into this game, FUS Rabat have not lost their last six matches. In that run, FUS Rabat defeated Moghreb Tetouan and Hassania Agadir while drawing Difaa El Jadidi, Maghreb Fez, and Jeunesse Sportive Soualem. With 23 points, FUS Rabat sit 5th in the standings. In that run, FUS Rabat scored 24 goals while conceding 14. 

Union Touarga

Union Touarga played Olympique de Safi the previous weekend and will hope things work out for this team following a defeat. In a game that ended 2-1, Union Touarga conceded twice in the first half, with Hamza Moujahid and Ibrahim El Bahraoui netting for their opponent. However, Mouad Dahak's strike in the 74th minute was not enough to see this team avoid a defeat, as they have lost two consecutive matches. 

Heading into this game, Union Touarga have not won their last three matches. In fact, Union Touarga have only one win in their last six league games, coming against IR Tanger. In other encounters, Union Touarga drew FAR Rabat and Renaissance Zemamra while losing to Berkane and Raja Casablanca. 

Expert Betting Tips

FUS Rabat are the side for the job, and I expect them to earn maximum points. While the visiting Union Touarga have faced consecutive defeats, I expect an improved performance from them here. Yet, FUS Rabat are playing so hot and have been competitive in their last matches in the league. In the meantime, their last meetings have ended without a winner, and I feel things might be different here. Take FUS Rabat as the better team to win, while both teams are expected to score as they have been impressive offensively.
