The Esperance vs. Wydad match will be played on Friday, May 31, at the El Menzah stadium, Tunis. This is the African Champions League final between Esperance from Tunisia and Wydad from Morocco. In the first match played in Casablanca the result was 1:1.

STATS

  • Esperance is in a great form at the moment. They are currently in a series of 12 matches without a defeat in all competitions. However, we saw a draw in their last two games. In seven out of their last eight matches we saw under 2.5 goals.
  • On the other hand, Wydad is in a bad form. They won only one out of their last eight games in all competitions. They are currently in a series of five matches without a win. In that period we saw four draws. In Wydad's games we usually see more goals - in six out of the last nine over 2.5 goals we scored.

HEAD TO HEAD

In the last ten years, these teams played seven times against each other. In five out of those seven matches we saw a draw, while Esperance recorded two wins. We saw over 2.5 goals only once and we expect a tough game once more.

ESPERANCE NEWS

Esperance scored an away goal in Morocco and if we have in mind the H2H tradition between these two teams, they are very near another African club championship title. They are strong defensively and they will rely on counter attacks in the upcoming game.

WYDAD NEWS

Wydad is not in a great form and they never managed to beat Esperance. They need an away victory, something they fail to record for seven straight matches, and it is hard to believe Wydad will be able to win the title.
