CAN vs MOR Group F Scenarios
While Canada has no chance to move further round in this tournament, Morocco have a great opportunity to qualify for the Round of 16.
If Morocco can avoid a defeat, they will go to the next round of this competition. A defeat can also work in their favour if Belgium suffer a defeat against Croatia (Morocco will directly qualify), Croatia suffer a loss (will apply tie-breaking criteria with Croatia) or a draw (will apply tie-breaking criteria with Belgium).
CAN vs MOR Match Preview
It will be the fourth official meeting but the first World Cup clash between Canada and Morocco. In those previous encounters, Morocco won twice and the other one had a draw result.
The next World Cup’s co-hosts Canada are already out of this tournament, but they will hope to end this competition on a positive note.
On the other hand, Morocco are unbeaten in the last seven games, including carrying a six-match clean sheet steak. They are clearly the favourite for this game, and now the CAF side has to deliver their expected performance on the field.
