The stringent Covid-19 protocols and a tight schedule of upcoming fixtures have been stated as reasons behind why Wydad Casablanca brought their second-string team to play Kaizer Chiefs in their penultimate CAF Champions League match over the weekend.
Having already qualified for the quarter-finals, Wydad arrived in South Africa minus Ahmed Tagnaouti, Taha Mourid, Ayoub El Amloud, Salah Saidi, Walid El Karti, Muaid Ellafi, Simon Msuva, Mohammed Ounajem, Amine Aboulfath, Achraf Dari, Yahya Jabrane, Aymane Hassouni, Ayoub El Kaabi, Yahia Attiyat allah as well as their head coach Faouzi Benzarti.
The other team qualifying from Group C will be determined by the outcome of the game between Chiefs and Horoya in Conakry, Guinea on Saturday.
Founded in 1926, the club takes its name from the famous Austrian club Rapid Vienna, who visited the small city of Oued Zem during the time of colonial occupation.
For many years after independence, Rapide languished in the lower echelons of Moroccan football, but gradually made their way up the ladder until the 2016-17 season, when they won the second-tier Botola 2 and were promoted to the top flight.
Rapide have finished 10th, 10th and 9th in the Botola over the last three years, but now, with Fertout at the helm, they have loftier ambitions.
As a player, 50 year-old Fertout won three Moroccan titles and the CAF Champions League in 1992 with Casablanca-based Wydad Athletic Club and played several seasons in Portugal with Belenenses and in the Netherlands with AZ Alkmaar.
