Canada vs Morocco Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Prediction
Canada’s return to the FIFA World Cup will end at the group stage, even as they prepare to face Morocco in the final round of matches in Group F. Ahead of this Thursday 1 December match at the Al Thumama Stadium in Doha, Morocco are second on four points and need just a draw to sail through to the next round. The Atlas Lions can finish top of the group with a win coupled with Croatia failing to win against Belgium. Should both Morocco and Croatia win, then goal differential, goals scored and fair play points will be used to decide the group winner in that order. The Moroccans can even find themselves through should they lose, should Croatia defeat Belgium or if Morocco's margin of defeat is not larger than one or two goals should the other match end in a draw. Meanwhile, Canada, who are yet to collect a point in this group, stand eliminated and go into this game bottom of the pool. For Morocco, and the two other nations still in contention, this remains a tight group, thus tough to call.

Canada - Morocco: Form Analysis
Canada should have had the perfect start to this competition but Alphonso Davies’ saved penalty early in their game against Belgium marked the start of their woes and a lot of missed chances combined with poor defending haven’t helped their cause. As it is, they can only start preparations for the 2026 World Cup, which they will be co-hosting. They did start well against Croatia, with Davies scoring their first ever World Cup goal. Their lead lasted for just half an hour and they went to the break trailing 2-1, before eventually losing 4-1. That was their third loss in five matches and they have failed to keep a sheet in those five matches. The loss to Croatia was the third time in five matches that they conceded two or more goals. Canada did well in the CONCACAF qualifiers for this competition, but thereafter it hasn’t been great competitively. Coming into this game, they have now lost five times in their last seven competitive matches. This will not be a great run into carry to a game against Morocco, a team on a seven-game unbeaten run and with six straight clean sheets. Morocco have also scored two or more goals in five of those seven matches, though five of their last six matches have produced under 2.5 goals. They have a great balance in defence and attack, as seen at this competition so far. While their 2-0 win over Belgium was the first at the World Cup since beating Scotland 3-0 at France 1998, they come into this game unbeaten in three World Cup matches. Morocco, who have already held their own against tough sides, will want to make easy work of already eliminated Canada, as they gear up for a potential matchup against either Spain or Germany in the next round should they advance.

Canada & Morocco Squad Analysis
Canada were naïve at the back and this was met by a ruthless Croatia in the last game; perhaps they will want to reward goalkeeper Milan Borjan with another start after saving them from what would have been a huge humiliation. The keeper made a number of great saves to keep Canada in the game and he should be keeping his place. Alphonso Davies scored their first ever World Cup goal and has been their most outstanding player, save for the penalty miss in their first game. He has offered a lot of options in attack and John Herdman may consider starting him in an advanced role. At the same time, 39-year-old Atiba Hutchinson may feel the pressure of starting a third straight game and is a candidate for a swap with Ismael Kone who has come in twice as a sub despite his immense talent and considerably younger age. Junior Hoilett started on the bench in the last game and could be a starter here. Morocco, for their part, have declared goalkeeper Yassine Bounou fit enough for this game after being pulled out of the starting team late before their game against Belgium. He felt dizzy and was immediately replaced by Munir Mohamed but could reclaim his place here. Noussair Mazraoui‘s fitness was confirmed late in the last game and the Bayern Munich man will be in contention to feature in this one too.

Our Canada vs Morocco Prediction
For Canada this is a dead rubber affair and after getting their first World Cup goal, they will want to get their first ever World Cup points, so chances are that they won’t sit back. This will actually be good for Morocco, who have a good defensive and attacking record as well as the better run, so we will back the North Africans to win.
