Now, however, it is Wydad's turn to travel to South Africa, and the club's board of directors have reportedly made adjustments to the travelling arrangements as Les Rouges prepare for the clash this coming Sunday.
According to Kooora, it was decided that the team would travel to Mzansi a day earlier – on Wednesday instead of Thursday – than originally planned.
It is said that the team wants more time to adjust to the country's weather, and to conduct extra training sessions prior to the all-important encounter at Loftus Versfeld.
The squad is also believed to be travelling on a private jet that includes a delegation headed by Wydad spokesperson Mohamed Talal.
It has been reported that the travelling contingent also consists of members of the team's management office to motivate the players and staff.
Meanwhile, club captain Yahya Jabrane, who will miss the tie through suspension, is said to also be travelling with his teammates to South Africa.
