Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: Terrain Errazi

A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Riadi Salmi fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and AS Salé's 13th place in the table will show on the pitch.

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.

The season is still full of potential for Riadi as they can still win the whole Botola 2. Salé are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

Riadi Salmi form and stats

7 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Riadi Salmi have to build on here at Terrain Errazi in the Botola 2. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Riadi, their manager and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Chabab Atlas Khénifra in only three days.

Riadi Salmi are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 14 games. Riadi are not conceding a lot of goals here at Terrain Errazi in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 11 from 14 matches.
