Morocco – D.R. Congo : Preview & Prediction
The Atlas Lions were slightly dominated in the first leg of the match, but they managed to draw the first leg in Congo (1-1) at the Stade des Martyrs in Kinshasa. The Atlas Lions were quickly trailed by a goal from Wissa in the 12th minute of the game, but they missed a penalty by Mmaee shortly before the hour mark (55th) before equalising with 15 minutes to go by Tissoudali (76th). The expulsion of the Congolese Ngonda in the 85th minute did not change the score, a score that favours the Moroccans. Morocco, unbeatable on its land since its failure in a friendly against Gabon (2-3) on 15 October 2019, has its fate in hand regarding the qualification. The DR Congo can feed big regrets after the first leg and will have to go and get the qualification in Casablanca. The last results of Congo on the road are not very good… Apart from a success in Tanzania (3-0) on November 11th, the selection of Cuper remained before this last trip on 1 draw in Benin (1-1) and on 3 defeats in Gabon (3-0), in Tunisia (1-0) in friendly and in Madagascar (1-0).
Morocco drew the first leg (1-1).
Morocco have only lost once in their last 9 meetings.
RD Congo have won only 3 times in their last 10 matches.
Morocco are unbeaten at home in all competitions since 15 October 2019.
Congolese defender Ngonda, who was sent off in the first leg, will miss the second leg.
The quarter-finalists of the last Africa Cup of Nations should make the difference on home soil to validate their qualification against a Congolese team limited on the road.
