It's already time for the third and final day of Group A action at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. On Monday, Zambia will take on Morocco at the Prince Moulay Abdallah Stadium in Rabat. The Chipolopolos are still in contention to qualify for the round of 16. They have drawn both of their first two matches in the group stage. However, Moses Sichone's side will almost certainly need to win to have any hope of reaching the knockout stages. They will have to pull off a major upset against the host nation.
In front of their fans, Morocco are the big favorites in this tournament. After getting off to a perfect start against the Comoros (2-0), they were held to a draw by Mali (1-1), a result that frustrated their supporters. However, the Atlas Lions are still top of their group with four points. Walid Regragui's men are still in a good position to finish top of their group. To do so, they will be looking to secure another victory in this 2025 AFCON.

Zambia - Morocco: Form Analysis
Zambia did not enter the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with much confidence. They lost their previous four matches before entering the tournament. In their debut, the Chipolopolos managed to snatch a draw in the dying moments against Mali (1-1).
However, they failed to live up to their status the following day. Favorites against Comoros, Moses Sichone's team had to settle for a draw (1-1). They will need to pull off a major upset in their final group stage match.
Morocco wants to secure first place in Group A.
As the host country for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, Morocco knows they've got a reputation to uphold. They got off to a good start in Group A by beating Comoros (2-0). Things got more complicated for the Atlas Lions after that.
They thought they were heading for another victory against Mali, but were eventually caught up shortly after the hour mark (1-1). The fans were not happy with the draw. However, Walid Regragui's men remain at the top of their group. They will have what it takes to secure their position with a win on Monday evening.

Zambia & Morocco Squad Analysis
Zambia has a few offensive assets that could help them pull off an upset on Monday night. With one goal in Serie A with Lecce, Lameck Banda is hoping to get on the scoreboard in this 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with the Chipolopolos. He won't be the only player to watch, along with Patson Daka.
The Leicester City player scored Zambia's only goal in the tournament so far, netting the equalizer against Mali. He will be eagerly awaited once again in a decisive match in the race for the round of 16. He will have to be at his very best on Monday night.
Brahim Diaz shone in his debut in this 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
As for Morocco, Romain Saïss is still out after his injury in the opening match. On the bright side, Achraf Hakimi could make his comeback during this match. Walid Regragui will have talent at his disposal in all areas of the pitch.
Between Yassine Bounou in goal, Nayef Aguerd in defense, and Neil El Aynaoui in midfield, he has plenty of options. On the offensive front, Brahim Diaz continues to perform well. He scored in the Atlas Lions' first two matches in this 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

It's hard to imagine them pulling off a surprise in what is unlikely to be a high-scoring game.
