With their 4 point edge in the league standings, Raja Beni Mellal regulars yearn to see their side win maximum points from this game versus USM Oujda.

Insights:
  • Raja Beni Mellal have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Raja Beni Mellal have scored at least twice as many goals at home as USM Oujda have scored away.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting USM Oujda have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 2-6-16 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches.

USM Oujda form and stats

1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of USM Oujda playing as the away team in the Botola 2 this season.

USM Oujda played 2-2 against Kawkab Marrakech in their previous match. Drawing 2-2 against Kawkab Marrakech after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

A 0-1 defeat away at Moghreb Tétouan before that.

Goals are few and far between in Oujda's away league games. Only 1 goal from 4 travels. Oujda are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 2 away goals have been conceded so far.
