AS FAR will play their next two home matches, against Raja Casablanca and Difaâ Hassani El Jadidi, at the Olympic Stadium in Rabat. The Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium has been closed temporarily so its turf can be maintained.
The work is tied to preparations for the Kingdom’s national team fixture against Niger at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium on Nov. 17, a match counting toward qualifying for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations.
Groundstaff need time to restore the playing surface before that international match. Until the maintenance is finished, the Rabat club will play its home fixtures at the Olympic Stadium instead.
The first of the two matches pits AS FAR against Raja on Wednesday, Nov. 4, at 8 p.m. It is a fixture carried over from the first matchday of the Botola Pro first division.
AS FAR then face Difaâ Hassani El Jadidi on Sunday, Nov. 8, at 6 p.m., also at the Olympic Stadium, in a seventh-round league fixture.
