Struggling Raja Beni Mellal will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Wydad Casablanca in the upcoming league round. It’s 16th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Raja Beni Mellal form and stats
Raja Beni Mellal have played three Botola Pro home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. It's trouble wherever Raja Beni Mellal are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.
The Raja Beni Mellal fans got no joy from their last match, a Botola Pro game also here at Stade Municipal de Beni Mellal: A 1-3 defeat against Hassania Agadir (placed 10th). Heartbreak before that as Raja Beni Mellal lost 0-1 at Ittihad Tanger's place.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Raja Beni Mellal as they are travelling to their away game against RSB Berkane in the Botola Pro. That match is two days after this one.

Wydad Casablanca form and stats
The seven points Wydad Casablanca have gathered from their first three away trips in the Botola Pro is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues.

As mentioned above, Wydad Casablanca was the only team on the pitch versus Khouribga in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
