Our Raja vs Ahly Predictions and Tips

These teams will meet for the fifth time in Caf Champions League (CCL). Our top predictions are as follows: 

Team to Score First Prediction: Raja Casablanca to Score First

Raja Casablanca is wary of a difficult match ahead, so their aim is to open the lead as soon as possible. With that, we think they will go all out to score the opener even though defeating Al Ahly will be a tall order in this second home game against the visitors.

Total Match Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

This will be a gruelling second leg of the 2023 CAF Champions League quarterfinals. While Al Ahly looks to regain its prominence in the campaign, so will do whatever it takes on the pitch to progress, Raja has the difficult challenge of defeating the former champions and overturning a 2-0 lead from the first leg. We predict under 2.5 goals in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw

Al Ahly settled for the spoils in a 1-1 draw when they last made this trip to play against Raja in Casablanca Morocco. Despite a shaky start to this year's CAF Champions League campaign, Al Ahly has defied the odds to reach this far. They have lost twice in this year's competition – all away from home. However, they only failed to score in the first match of the campaign when they were hosted by neighbour Omdurman. This trip to Morocco comes on the back of fine form, winning thrice in a row, so while Raja has the odds in their favour, we think Al Ahly that holds the most titles in the competition will snatch a point in an expected 1-1 draw, which is our final Raja vs Ahly prediction.

Raja vs Ahly CAF Champions League Preview

Raja

The biggest task for Raja Casablanca right now is to remain in the competition. They are one of the two remaining Moroccan teams in the competition, so we expect Raja to do their best in this near-impossible mission. They face Al Ahly of Egypt for the fifth time, having lost three of the previous four meetings. All defeats were away from home. They held Al Ahly to a 1-1 draw in the only home game they ever played at home against the Egyptian visitors back in April 2022.

Al Ahly

Al Ahly of Egypt travels to Morocco for the second leg of the CAF Champions League. They have the difficult task of defending their 2-0 lead from the first leg. Al Ahly being the team with the most wins in this competition will undoubtedly put their best into this, so even with a draw, they stand a great chance of progressing to the CAF Champions League semifinals.
