Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Wydad Fès in 7th and Tihad Casablanca in 9th place.

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.

3-8-6 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Tihad Casablanca when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 17 matches are 15-22 (scored/conceded).

Tihad Casablanca form and stats

The visitors are W3-D4-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Botola 2. Casablanca has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Casablanca's last game was the home draw against Riadi Salmi (0-0). Prior to that match, the Casablanca manager faced defeat when travelling to Chabab Atlas Khénifra and losing 0-1.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Casablanca have scored 13 goals in 11 league games away. 15 goals have been conceded by Casablanca in these games.
