MAS de Fès welcome Rahimo FC in the first round of CAF Champions League qualifying. CheckLive has the home side as favourites at 55%, but that is a medium-strength signal — a draw is a genuinely possible result.
MAS de Fès have won three of their last five league matches, beating Olympique Dcheira 2-0, Union Sportive Yacoub El Mansour 2-1 and Wydad AC 1-0, with a goalless draw against Kawkab Athletic Club Marrakech and a 2-1 loss at RS Berkane. Rahimo FC are unbeaten in their recent run, having beaten RC Bobo-Dioulasso 4-0, RC de Kadiogo 2-0 and US Forces Armees 1-0, alongside two draws with Vitesse FC, 1-1 and 0-0.
There is no previous head-to-head between these two clubs, so the opening exchanges will be telling. Rahimo arrive with a clean recent record, while MAS de Fès have home advantage behind their 55% probability. The key is whether the hosts can assert themselves early or allow Rahimo to settle into the tie.
