Their defense has been in good form, and they have only conceded goals in 1 of the last 5 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in the last 5 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency towards low goals, as 5 of their last 12 matches have ended with Under 1.5 goals.

The Moroccan team starts this game moralized after having added a victory, by 0-3, in the trip to Sudan, thus adding their fifth consecutive victory in this qualifying phase for the World Cup: the team’s goals were signed by Ryan Nmaee (2) and Imrân Louza. Coach Vahid Halilhodzic should play in 4-3-3 favoring the maintenance of ball possession and positional attacks: midfielder Ilias Chair will be the team’s conductor, being responsible for organizing and creating the offensive process. All players are available for this game.

Guinea enters this journey with a 0-0 draw against Guinea-Bissau, thus continuing without winning this qualifying phase for the 2022 World Cup. In this away game, coach Didier Six should enter the field with a strategy more cautious, exploring only the counterattack: Aguibou Camara is a very competent player in the offensive transition.
