Competition: Morocco Botola 2

Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stade de Marrakech (45240 seats)

The visiting Maghreb Fès side should be favourites in this visit to Kawkab Marrakech, as the away team holds a 16 point advantage from their 28 league games this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

This stadium uses grass, unlike Maghreb Fès's home stadium. The visitors last 18 games on grass have ended in 4 wins, 4 draws and 10 losses.

Marrakech are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Maghreb are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
