Chabab Mohammédia form and stats

As the visiting team in Botola Pro matches, Chabab Mohammédia have produced an overall stat of 1-0-3 so far. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Chabab Mohammédia's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Olympic Safi proved too strong as Mohammédia slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans.

A 1-2 defeat away at Hassania Agadir before that.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Mohammédia's away games in the league this season with only {2 goals} from 4 matches.
