Raja of Casablanca supporters will be banned from traveling to Berkane for the match between the two teams scheduled for Sunday December 29, according to security sources quoted by Hesport.

Security sources confirmed to Hesport that a regional meeting was held today in Berkane to examine the security and organizational aspects of the match between Berkane Renaissance and Raja de Casablanca.

The match, scheduled for Sunday as part of the 16th day of the Botola, has prompted local authorities to impose a travel ban on Raja supporters.

According to the same sources, the decision will be forwarded to the Wilaya of the Casablanca-Settat region for implementation, specifying that the ban concerns not only group travel, but also any presence of Raja supporters at the Berkane municipal stadium.

Reasons given for the ban include threats and previous incidents of violence between the two teams in Berkane. These events prompted the authorities to adopt this preventive measure.

The match will pit Berkane Renaissance, league leaders on 33 points (10 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss), against Raja Casablanca, currently sixth on 23 points (6 wins, 5 draws, 3 losses). The match marks the first day of the second phase of the Botola Pro.
