Ittihad Tanger vs RSB Berkane Prediction: The hosts might capitalise on the visitors' woes

Ittihad Tanger will lock horns against RSB Berkane at the Stade El Bachir Stadium on Sunday. The visitors relieved coach Amin Al Karma of his duties, having won just once in seven games. They’ll also make do with key figures Djibril Ouattara and Issoufou Dayo, who were on AFCON duties. 

Ittihad Tanger (15th)

Last five games: DLDLW

Coach Hilal Al-Tayr began his campaign with a comfortable (1-3) victory on the road. The last time the Hercules won on the road was June 2023. The win have lifted their morale, and we hope they can build on it as they try to survive relegation. 

Just like last season, where they were fourth tooth and nail to remain in the league, Ittihad Tanger are walking on the same path as they march here, intending to stay in the division. 

Ittihad Tanger retained the 15th spot on the log, picking up fourteen points from a combined forty-eight.

The Hercules have drawn five, won once and lost two games on their ground this season. 

RSB Berkane (3rd)

Last five games: DDWLL

After a year and a month as the coach of the Orange Boys, the reign of coach Amin El Karma came to an end. The Moroccan tactician have had a terrible run lately, and following the defeat against an unconvincing Mouloudia Oujda, we can all agree that’s the best decision for both parties. 

The Orange Boys were quite unlucky and deserved a point, at least. They had twenty-one shots, and seven were on target. RSB Berkane have been unstable in the league recently, with six points in six matches. RSB Berkane have drawn the most joint games in the league and are ten points behind the league leaders. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous nineteen meetings, RSB Berkane have won six while Ittihad Tanger recorded five wins and eight games ending in a draw. The Orange Boys will play their first game without a coach, and two key players are still missing from the squad. At the same time, Ittihad Tanger are sky high in confidence after their comfortable victory over JS Soulem. Even though their recent opponent doesn’t post so much threat, that’s a good time to start rebuilding. We think the home side will capitalise on the visitors' current predicament and win either half is possible 2.50.

Both teams are expected to get a goal apiece for 1.97.

The home side might even get the first goal here for 2.27.

Good luck!
