Wydad Casablanca vs Union Touarga Prediction: The Red Castle to close the gap at the top of the log

On Sunday, the Red Castle will square off against Union Touarga at the Larbi Zarouli Stadium. The home side, who lost heavily on their ground against Maghreb Fes, will be keen to bounce back when they host a winless Union Touarga tomorrow. 

Wydad Casablanca (6th)

Last five games: WDDLW

The Red Castle returned to winning ways after their (1-4) loss at home against Maghreb Fes. Wydad Casablanca swung into action against Moghreb Tétouan, scoring twice before the break while their opponent responded once in the second half. The (1-2) loss against such a poor opponent was such a better performance compared to their defeat against Maghreb Fes. 

The Red Castle have picked up twenty-seven points from a combined fifty-one, scoring twenty-three and conceding nineteen. Wydad Casablanca have won five, drawn a game, and lost twice over their previous eight home matches. 

Union Touarga (13th)

Last five games: DLLLL

Abdelouahed Zamrat's men have not been themselves this season, heading here with four successive defeats. Union Touarga head here with a heavy loss on their home turf, conceding three times against Maghreb Fes at home. After dominating the first half and almost getting some goals, Union Touarga's defence went on strike as their guests found the back of the net three times in sixteen minutes. 

They have been unlucky with fixtures, as three of their last four games have been on the road. Union Touarga started strong this season but have struggled in recent matches as they occupy the thirteenth place on the log. US Touraga have won twice, drawn four, and lost two games on the road this season. 

Interesting Facts

The Red Castle have won twice and drawn three against Union Touarga over their previous five meetings. 

Four of their last five meetings have produced a total of under 2.5 goals. 

Expert Betting Tips

Wydad Casablanca were unlucky in their last home game, as they were reduced to ten men after eleven minutes on the pitch. They have to respond positively on their home turf, and we are trusting them to secure all the points here.

Union Touarga are presently weak at the back and I expect the hosts to start strong here; bet on home halftime over 0.5 goals for 1.77.

Wydad Casablanca must win here to move closer to the continental spot, and I expect them to win and score more than once here for 2.00.

This game will likely end in a (3-0) victory for the home side for 9.60.

Good luck!
