Interim Wydad Casablanca head coach, Amine Benhachem, has urged his players to raise their game ahead of their upcoming clash with AS FAR.
Wydad is set to face FAR on Saturday at the Mohammed V Stadium in a critical Matchday 28 fixture in the Moroccan top-flight.
In his address to the team, Benhachem highlighted the crucial role of mental strength, stressing the necessity of securing a win to prevent the team from setting a negative record.
He pointed out that Wydad has never experienced a run of seven consecutive draws since 1957, and they must avoid matching that unwanted feat.
Currently, Wydad is coming off a streak of six straight draws, which places them in a precarious position and raises the stakes for this match.
FAR, now in second place and six points behind Wydad, will be eager to capitalize on this opportunity, adding further intensity to the highly anticipated showdown.
