Defending Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) winners Morocco will look to make it two wins out of two to start their 2027 AFCON qualifiers on a high when they play Lesotho. This Group A match on Tuesday between the third-placed ‘Crocodiles’ and the first-placed ‘Atlas Lions’ at the neutral venue of Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein could be a low-scoring one with under 3.5 goals, our match prediction.
Lesotho are third in the standings after matchday one, with only a goal difference keeping them from the bottom. Morocco are top with a win on matchday one, edging Niger by goal difference.
After conceding twice in the first half, Lesotho fell to a 2-1 defeat at Niger with only an 85th-minute penalty reducing the deficit. It was an eighth defeat for the ‘Crocodiles’ from their last 13 games, winning only two.
Lesotho are unbeaten in four of their last five matches (W2, D2) when playing as hosts, but can they continue that trend here?
Morocco started with a 2-0 home win over Gabon to start their qualification campaign. It was a fifth win from their last six matches, with the lone loss in that sequence coming against France in the World Cup.
The defending tournament champions have now won their last eight AFCON qualifiers, keeping clean sheets in six of those games.

Our Lesotho vs Morocco Prediction
A comfortable victory over Gabon got Morocco going, although they would have wanted more than the two goals they scored. Lesotho have never qualified for an AFCON finals tournament and a loss here could complicate their chances of ending that drought. Their struggles against top teams could be a challenge, although they may look to keep it tight.
Morocco have won both their previous AFCON qualifiers against Lesotho without conceding, and while that may continue, goals could be limited here. Our Lesotho vs Morocco prediction is under 3.5 goals.
