Maghreb Fès vs Moghreb Tetouan Prediction: Both sides will be pleased with a point

After a tug-of-war between AS FAR Rabat and Wydad Casablanca last season, the Botola Pro League kicks off as Maghreb Fes lock horns with Moghreb Tetouan at the Complexe Sportif de Fes Stadium on Friday. Wydad Casablanca remains the favourite to win the league, while AS FAR Rabat, Raja Casablanca and FUS Rabat will fight for a top-four finish. The league is ranked as the best in Africa, and we expect a great season, just like the previous one.

After the great start to the season, Maghreb Fes struggled towards the end of the campaign, finishing in the 10th spot on the log. Maghreb Fes drew the joint most games (13), scoring twenty-seven times. Maghreb Fes lost four and drew two over their previous six fixtures.

Maghreb Fes have won five, drawn six, and lost four at home last season, and we expect them to improve on their ground this season.

The visitors were one of the promoted sides that remained in the league. Maghreb Tetouan almost got relegated after going five games without a win toward the end of the season.

Moghreb Tetouan picked up twenty-nine points from a possible ninety and survived relegation by just two points.

Moghreb Tetouan lost eight, drew six and won just once throughout their away games last season.

Over their fifteen previous meetings, Moghreb Tetouan won five while Maghreb Fes recorded two victories and eight games ended in a share of the spoils. In their last eleven meetings, the home team have consistently won or drawn in this fixture. Only once have this fixture witnessed more than two goals. It’s hard to tell how both sides will approach this game, as it’s a new season. We’d rather settle for goals here; bet on a total under 2.5 goals for 1.50.

We expect the home team to be stronger; however, to be on the safe side, bet on Maghreb Fes to score first for 1.79.

The best possible outcome here is a share of the spoils for 3.00.

Good luck!
