Excitement and passion always mark the Casablanca Derby between Wydad Athletic Club and Raja Club Athletic.

The Mohammed V Sports Complex will host the Casablanca Derby between Wydad and Raja, as part of the fifth round of the Moroccan Botola Pro League. 

The match carries special significance, as it brings together two historic rivals who share a long-standing legacy of fierce competition and mutual rivalry.

Raja, led by coach Fadlu Davids, enter the match in a strong position after a promising start to the season.

The Green team collected 12 points from five matches, achieving three wins and two draws, without suffering a single loss.

Their most recent victory, a 1–0 win over Olympique Dcheira, boosted the team’s confidence in continuing its pursuit of the league’s top spot.

Raja will be aiming to win the Derby to maintain its strong momentum this season.

On the other side, Wydad, coached by Mohammed Amine Benhachem, seek to return to winning ways by defeating their archrivals in this Derby.

The Reds earned 10 points from four matches, with three wins and one draw.

Wydad rediscovered their attacking rhythm after a 3–1 victory over Club Meknassi, and now hope to strengthen its position in the league standings and keep the pressure on its traditional rival.
