AS FAR will host Raja Casablanca on Wednesday 4 November at the Prince Moulay Abdellah sports complex in Rabat. The fixture is a first-round game of the 2026-2027 Botola Pro, postponed and due to be slotted in between rounds six and seven. The schedule published by the National Professional Football League now shows how both teams' calendars line up.
Before they meet, the two clubs will each play two league games. On Wednesday 28 October, Raja will host Hassania Agadir at the Mohammed V complex in Casablanca. The same day, AS FAR will welcome Ittihad Tanger to the Prince Moulay Abdellah stadium. Those games count towards round five, which runs from 24 to 29 October.
Two away games before the meeting in Rabat
Round six, scheduled from 30 October to 1 November, then sends both sides on the road. On Sunday 1 November, Raja face Renaissance Sportive de Berkane at the Berkane municipal stadium. AS FAR, for their part, play COD Meknès at the Stade d'Honneur in Meknès.
The classico will therefore come three days after those away games. For fans, the key point is that the postponed first-round game is separate from the regular calendar: AS FAR v Raja is not a round-seven fixture, even though it is played before it.
Raja switch stadium after the classico
Round seven will take place from 6 to 8 November. On Sunday 8, AS FAR return to the Prince Moulay Abdellah complex to host Difaa El Jadida. Raja will welcome Ittihad Tanger at the Larbi Zaouli stadium in Casablanca.
Raja fans will also see a change of venue: the Hassania game on 28 October is announced for Mohammed V, while the Tanger game on 8 November is at Larbi Zaouli. The one game both clubs share still sits between those two rounds: 4 November in Rabat, with AS FAR at home.
