Widad Témara vs Kawkab Marrakech - Botola Pro

The Botola Pro returns to the home ground on October 18, 2026, where Widad Témara and Kawkab Marrakech will lock horns in a contest that could shape their respective campaigns. The left-back was taken off in the final minutes against Everton with cramp, and was not risked for the Champions League clash vs Sabah on Thursday.

In the Botola Pro table, Widad Témara currently occupy 14th and Kawkab Marrakech sit 4th, and the context adds genuine weight to what is already an intriguing fixture. Widad Témara are mired in a difficult campaign, LLWWD over their last five and a paltry win rate of 0% painting a bleak picture. The visitors have been enduring a wretched campaign, DDDWL in their last five and a season win rate of just 0% that leaves them deep in trouble. Goals could be in short supply or plentiful — Widad Témara average 0 per game to Kawkab Marrakech's 0, and that gap may dictate the rhythm of the contest. One position every Premier League club still needs to strengthen in before the transfer window closes.

Set-piece efficiency could prove the difference on the night. Both Widad Témara and Kawkab Marrakech have invested time in dead-ball situations this season, and a single corner or free-kick may settle it. Speaking on his YouTube channel, he said: "If I’m Manchester United right now, I say press the green button and buy him, take him, right now.

In fixtures as finely poised as this one, it often comes down to who holds their nerve in the big moments — and both camps have players who relish that responsibility. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. The Lille midfielder excelled in his fledgling role at his first major international tournament, particularly noticeable in a group-stage bout with Brazil.

Without the market to lean on, the contest feels genuinely open — and the outcome may come down to which side handles the occasion better. The numbers tilt towards Kawkab Marrakech, and a 1-2 away win looks the more probable outcome. With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. England captain Harry Kane is likely to sign a new deal to extend his stay at Bayern Munich despite interest from Barcelona.
