Ittihad Tangier coach Hilal Al-Tayyar says his side is not under pressure ahead of their game against Moghreb Tetouan.
The two sides will clash on Monday at the Saniat Rmel Stadium in the Round of 26 games in the Moroccan top-flight with kick-off scheduled at 17:00 GMT.
Ittihad Tangier currently sit 11th on the league log with 31 points, while Moghreb Tetouan sit 15th with 16 points.
“There is no pressure because the team accomplished the required task with the resources available to it. The pressure is on the competitor, whom we respect, given its more complicated position in the standings,” Al-Tayyar told Kooora.
“Preparations are normal, although the league’s suspension has somewhat disrupted the rhythm. There’s no longer room to talk about the importance of points in all the remaining matches, and that’s a reality.
“Our goal is to return with a result that pleases our fans, who are banned from attending for organizational reasons, and to respond to the first-leg result, which we lost undeservedly, without going into detail,” he added.
