Canada vs Morocco Preview and Team News
Canada Team News
Canada have done extremely well so far at the World Cup. They qualified for the Round of 16 by beating South Africa 1-0. Before that, they lost just one of their three group-stage games.
Against South Africa, Canada played largely on the counterattack, recording just 42% possession. Despite seeing less of the ball, Les Rouges managed 12 shots, including seven on target.
Their attack looked sharp throughout the match, as they registered 25 touches in the opposition box, 17 more than the South Africans. Canada were also brilliant in the air, winning 69% of all their aerial duels.
Manager Jesse Marsch deployed a solid 4-4-2 formation against South Africa, and there’s little reason to change it here. The only confirmed injury absentee is Ismael Kone, who is sidelined with a broken ankle until at least October.
Canada predicted lineup vs Morocco (4-4-2): Crepeau; Laryea, Cornelius, Bombito, Johnston; Millar, Eustaquio, Saliba, Buchanan; David, Oluwaseyi.
Morocco Team News
Morocco produced one of the biggest upsets of the Round of 32 by beating the Netherlands on penalties. The result extended the Atlas Lions’ unbeaten run to four matches at the tournament.
Morocco, who finished fourth at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, impressed against the Dutch. Although they needed a stoppage-time goal from Issa Diop to force extra time, the team still posted 70% possession.
Beyond his goal, Diop also impressed by completing 97% of his passes and winning every aerial duel. Left-back Noussair Mazraoui, meanwhile, registered a game-high 19 defensive contributions and won 100% of his ground duels.
The Atlas Lions enter this match with no major injury concerns.
Morocco predicted lineup vs Canada (4-2-3-1): Bono; Mazraoui, Riad, Diop, Hakimi; El Aynaoui, Bouaddi; El Khannouss, Ounahi, Diaz; Saibari.
Canada vs Morocco Prediction
- Pick: Morocco to qualify
- Odds: -271 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Canada 1-2 Morocco
We expect Morocco to reach the quarterfinals. They are a much more experienced side than Canada, highlighted by their fourth-place finish at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The gulf in class between the teams is also reflected in the FIFA rankings, where Morocco sit seventh, and Les Rouges are 30th.
The Atlas Lions also arrive in stronger form, as they are unbeaten at this World Cup, while Canada have won just two of their four games.
Canada vs Morocco Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Last goal – Morocco
- Odds: -162 (20Bet)
Morocco should have the final say in this clash. They have some of the world’s best attacking players, including Brahim Diaz, who has already bagged two assists at this World Cup. Striker Ismael Saibari, with three goals so far, is another major threat who can seal the deal for the Atlas Lions.
Right-back Achraf Hakimi, one of the most famous players in this Moroccan setup, is in good form, too. Against the Netherlands, he created the joint-most chances (three) and recorded the most shots (three) despite his defensive position.
