There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Mouloudia Oujda leading Khouribga by 13 points.

The hosts Mouloudia saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Botola Pro. That game was an away game at RSB Berkane, so at least Mouloudia are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

2-3-4 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Khouribga 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 nine matches are 9-9 (scored/conceded).

Khouribga form and stats

There's been little loot from Khouribga's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 10 away games in the Botola Pro. Khouribga only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 3 draws. Khouribga has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Khouribga lost away at Wydad Casablanca (2-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Prior to that match, the Khouribga manager A. Al-Ajlani faced defeat when travelling to FUS Rabat and losing 0-1.
