The National Professional Football League (LNFP) has officially unveiled the schedule for the inaugural round of Morocco’s Botola Pro 2026-27 season, with the opening match set to take place on Thursday, September 24. This eagerly anticipated season is marked by the debut of newly promoted team Amal Tiznit, who will face Ittihad Tanger at 8 p.m. local time. However, the LNFP has yet to confirm the stadium where this match will be held, leaving fans eager for updates on the venue selection.

The excitement continues as the opening round progresses into Saturday, September 26, featuring three engaging matches. Ittihad Touarga will take on FUS Rabat at 4 p.m. at the Prince Moulay El Hassan Sports Complex located in Rabat, followed by Difaâ Hassani El Jadidi hosting MAS Fes at 6 p.m. at El Abdi Stadium in El Jadida. The day’s action wraps up with Wydad Casablanca competing against Wydad Temara at 8 p.m. at the iconic Mohammed V Sports Complex in Casablanca.

Sunday, September 27, promises to be equally thrilling, with four matches lined up. Moghreb Tetouan will welcome RS Berkane at 4 p.m. at Saniat Rmel Stadium, while Maghreb Fes is set to clash with Renaissance Zemamra at 6 p.m. at the Fez Sports Complex. The day concludes with Kawkab Marrakech taking on Hassania Agadir at 8 p.m. at El Harti Stadium in Marrakech. However, amidst the excitement, the LNFP has announced the indefinite postponement of the highly anticipated match between FAR Rabat and Raja Casablanca. This decision stems from the involvement of four FAR Rabat players in international duty during the ongoing international break, necessitating a rescheduling of this important fixture.

As teams prepare to embark on the 2026-27 campaign, they face the challenge of balancing their domestic responsibilities with commitments to international competitions and national teams. The league’s opening round represents a significant moment for fans and players alike as they look forward to the unfolding drama of the season.
