Time: 12.03.2024, 01:00 AM
Wydad Casablanca will face off against Ittihad Tanger at the El Bachir Stadium in a bid to redeem themselves from their recent stalemate on their ground. The hosts have been underwhelming this season, and their title hopes might have been thrown under the carpet following their recent stalemate. At the same time, the visitors are back for survival following their back-to-back losses.
Wydad Casablanca (4th)
Last five games: WLWDD
The Red Castle once again failed to impress as they settled for a share of the spoils on their ground against Union Touraga. They went from a position of strength and control to fighting for a point when they were reduced to ten after three minutes of play.
Wydad Casablanca were indecisive in front of goals, as none of their nine shots found the back of the net. The clock is ticking for Faouzi Benzarti, who has managed two wins in his last twelve games as the coach of Wyada Casablanca.
The Red Castle are fourth on the table, with thirty-three points out of sixty-three. Wydad Casablanca have won six, drawn two, and lost twice on their ground this season.
Ittihad Tanger (14th)
Last five games: DWWLL
After an impressive three games without a defeat, Ittihad Tanger bowed to another defeat on the road. The (2-1) loss was a hard pill to swallow as they missed the opportunity to share the spoils when Ismail Khalif failed to convert from the spot-kick. Since the arrival of coach Hilal Al-Tayr, Ittihad Tanger have been pretty solid and confident in front of goal. Just like last season, where they fought tooth and nail to remain in the league, Ittihad Tanger are walking on the same path as they march here, intending to stay in the division.
Ittihad Tanger dropped to the 14th spot on the log, picking up twenty-one points from a combined sixty-six.
The Hercules have drawn four, won twice, and lost five games away from home this season.
Expert Betting Tips
Over their previous nineteen meetings, Wydad Casablanca have won eight and drawn six, while Ittihad Tanger have recorded five victories. Wydad Casablanca are not the team they used to be and have been underperforming since the season began. Considering the quality of their players and coach, they should be competing for the title. However, they have somewhat lacked in their ability and are now twenty-two points behind the league leaders. At the same time, Ittihad Tanger are a very delicate team but not on the road. They have recently gone toe-to-toe with the best team in the league, AS FAR Rabat, and lost by just a goal difference. We think they’ll be more than determined not to lose three consecutive games and we want to back them to at least get a goal here for 1.75.
The hosts will be looking to bounce back, and we expect them to win here for 1.50.
This game might end in a halftime draw for 2.19.
Good luck!
