With their 22 point advantage in the league table, CR Khemis Zemamra fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Raja Beni Mellal.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Zemamra and Raja Beni Mellal.

Zemamra are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Mellal are nearing the end of this stay in this division as relegation is now unavoidable.

CR Khemis Zemamra form and stats

CR Khemis Zemamra have collected 19 points from their Botola Pro home games so far after 5-4-5.

Zemamra are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-5 away versus FAR Rabat. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Khouribga that ended 0-0.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

A decent goal production from CR Khemis Zemamra in their home games so far, with 21 goals from 14 league matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 16 goals have been conceded.

Raja Beni Mellal form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Raja Beni Mellal, who have the fewest scored goals (12) in Botola Pro, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-11 (win-draw-lose). Mellal are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Rapide Oued Zem fixture. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Mellal have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the AS Sale game.

Mellal have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 546 minutes ago. A. Benjelloun was the goal scorer.

The manager was unhappy after their last game, a Botola Pro match played at their home ground Stade Municipal de Beni Mellal. Mellal suffered a 0-2 loss to Youssoufia Berrechid (placed 13th). A loss against FAR Rabat was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Goals are few and far between in Mellal's away league games. Only 3 goals from 14 travels. As opposed to that, Mellal have seen the ball go into their own net 19 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Raja Beni Mellal - Zemamra 2-2. Head-to-head totals (for the last four meetings): Zemamra won two games, two matches ended with a draw and Raja Beni Mellal has zero wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / three
