Maghreb Fes vs Wydad Casablanca Prediction: The Red Castle will get off to a flying start

On Friday, the Botola Pro League will kick off with Maghreb Fes hosting Wydad Casablanca at the Stade Hassan Stadium. The hosts had a terrible season, fighting their way to remain in the league, while the Red Castle finished below the top for the first time since 2014. This season promises to be another roller coaster, with Wydadꦓ tipped to return to glory. 

The hosts wrapped up their season in the 11th spot, picking up thirty-four points from a combined ninety. Maghreb Fes also lost the semifinal of the Throne Cup to AS FAR Rabat on their ground. 

The Diamonds used to compete in this tournament but have retrogressed over the years. Maghreb Fes have a new coach and acquired ten new 🤡players' services. 

The Red Castle finished below the top four for the first time since the 2013/2014 season. It was a disappointing campaign for the most successful side in the history of the competition. 

Wydad Casablanca have had a total overhaul over the season, signi⛎ng Rulani Mokwena from Mamelodi Sundowns. The management has backed the new coach and he’s acquired players they can quickl🐻y adjust to his style of play. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, Wydad Casablanca have won seven while Maghreb Fes have recorded three wins and ten games ending in a tie. Maghreb Fes are not at the same level as the guests as they have sold most of their top performers last campaign. The hosts have also acquired the services of more than ten players in this window and they’ll be keen to make the top four at least.

After their recent acquisition, Wydad Casablanca have be♔en tipped to win the Botola Pro League this season. I think they have a very technical coach who would return the Red Castle to glory. Wydad will hope to make a huge statement in their opening game of the season, and we think theyll exert dominance over the hosts.

This game will produce more than two goals for 2💖.30.

We expect both teams to 𝕴get a goal apiece for ൲2.17.

Good luck!
