OCS Olympique de Safi vs Maghreb Fez

General Expert Overview

The upcoming match between OCS Olympique de Safi and Maghreb Fez on May 8, 2025, sets up a tactical and defensively inclined fixture. The provided data suggests both teams tend to keep things tight, especially early in each half. With an average total goals of just 2.21, and both teams barely crossing the 1-goal-per-match threshold, scoring is not expected to come easily. Additionally, low red card averages (0.21) highlight disciplined approaches; neither side is likely to be forced into chaos by sending-offs, further enhancing the prospect of a methodical contest.

Both Teams Not To Score In 1st Half: 89.00

There is an overwhelming expectation that neither side will find the net before halftime. This aligns with both clubs’ conservative style in the early stages and the overall low average goal figures. Tactical caution, particularly in opening periods, will likely limit open chances and make early breakthroughs rare.

Both Teams Not To Score In 2nd Half: 86.00

While marginally less likely than the first half, the probability remains high that the match may not see both teams scoring after the interval. This suggests an ongoing struggle for offensive effectiveness or tactical adjustments that focus on preserving a result rather than forcing the play.

Home Team Not To Score In 1st Half: 79.00

OCS Olympique de Safi may face considerable challenges breaching Maghreb Fez’s backline early. The home crowd may hope for a flying start, but all indicators point to a measured approach, reducing chances of a home goal before half-time.

Over 1.5 Goals: 75.00

Although both sides often feature in low-scoring affairs, the historical average hints that the match could produce more than one goal, especially as play opens up late. Strategic conservatism may give way to opportunism as teams seek a vital edge, raising the over 1.5 goals scenario.

Under 2.5 Goals: 68.00

Under 2.5 goals is strongly anticipated given the scoring averages and defensive focus of both squads. Unless defensive errors or tactical gambles occur late, expect a relatively quiet scoreline.

Away Team Not To Score In 1st Half: 64.00

Maghreb Fez may also encounter difficulty creating meaningful chances early on, likely due to OCS Safi’s defensive organization and the typical slow build in Moroccan domestic football. Expect a cagey start for the visitors.

Away Team To Score In 2nd Half: 57.00

A notable shift in the second half could see Maghreb Fez finding the net. As fatigue and tactical changes come into play, gaps may open up, increasing the likelihood of an away goal post-intermission.

Sum of Goals 2 or 3: 57.00

The match’s most balanced predicted goal tally hovers between two and three goals. This fits the data profile, reflecting a contest that will likely see scoring but not at an excessive rate.

Over 0.5 Goals HT: 54.00

There are moderate chances for at least one goal in the first half, but this seems more likely attributable to a breakdown or rare moment of attacking quality rather than sustained offensive pressure.

First Goal 30+ Minutes: 54.00

The timing for the first goal looks set to come past the 30-minute mark, as both teams prioritize structure over risk from the outset. Patience will be key for fans expecting fireworks.
