FUS Rabat vs Mouloudia Oujda prediction and betting tips - June 1, 2024
In the final match of the 29th round of the Moroccan Botola Pro, FUS Rabat will face Mouloudia Oujda. The game will take place on Saturday, June 1st, kicking off at 20:00 Central European Time, and the experts at Dailysports have prepared a forecast for this encounter.
FUS Rabat
The team is currently in the upper half of the league table, sitting in fourth place with 42 points after 28 games. FUS cannot contend for third place, as they are seven points behind with one game left in the season. However, they can still lose fourth place, as the gap between them and the fifth, sixth, and seventh places is narrow—just one and two points, respectively. FUS had a decent season, scoring 32 goals, the fifth-best in the league, and conceding 26, also the fifth-best.
Unfortunately, a poor run towards the end of the season—one win, one draw, and four losses in their last six matches—prevented them from challenging for a top-three finish. This slump allowed their direct competitor, Berkane, to secure third place with a comfortable seven-point lead.
Mouloudia Oujda
The team is currently at the bottom of the Botola Pro table, sitting in 15th place with 24 points after 28 matches. Both the 15th and 16th spots face relegation to Botola 2, making a win imperative for Oujda. They trail the 14th team on tiebreakers, and a victory coupled with a rival’s slip-up would ensure their stay in the top division. They cannot fall any lower, as they are four points ahead of the last-placed team. Mouloudia Oujda has defensive issues, conceding 43 goals—the worst in the league. They have also scored only 20 goals, the third-lowest tally.
However, their recent form is relatively solid for a team at the bottom, with three draws and two losses in their last five matches. These results have kept their hopes alive for avoiding relegation.
