FAR Rabat - RSB Berkane: our prediction

In the last 10 matches, FAR Rabat had under 2.5 goals in 60% of cases (6/10) and RSB Berkane in 70% of cases (7/10). Both defenses are solid (FAR Rabat: 5 clean sheets; RSB Berkane: 2 clean sheets but only 1 defeat). The pressure of the CAF Champions League and the balance between the teams favor a tight match with few goals.

FAR Rabat's home defense is solid: 5 clean sheets in the last 10 matches. RSB Berkane, although performing well, has shown difficulties in scoring regularly away from home in tight matches. In Berkane's last 10 matches, the team scored under 0.5 goals (i.e., did not score) in only 10% of cases (1/10), but this percentage increases against solid defenses like that of FAR Rabat. Given the stakes and FAR's defensive solidity, a goalless match for Berkane is a possible scenario.

FAR Rabat has not lost any of its last 10 matches (5W, 5D). RSB Berkane has suffered only one defeat in the same period (5W, 4D, 1L). Both teams are very hard to beat. FAR Rabat drew in 50% of its recent matches (5/10), RSB Berkane in 40% (4/10). The home team is favored by bookmakers (odds 1.95), but Berkane's solidity away from home (1 defeat in 10) suggests a very plausible draw scenario.
