Canada vs Morocco Prediction and Betting Tips | December 1st 2022

Canada and Morocco will square off at the Al Thumama Stadium in their final group-stage game of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Thursday.

Canada have been eliminated from the competition after suffering defeats in their first two games of the competition. The other three teams in Group F remain in contention to qualify.

They suffered a 1-0 defeat in the campaign opener against Belgium and in their previous outing fell to a 4-1 defeat to 2018 finalists Croatia on Sunday. Alphonso Davies scored the opener just two minutes after kick-off but Croatia fought back well, scoring two goals in either half.

Morocco defeated Belgium in their previous outing as second-half goals from Romain Saïss and Zakaria Aboukhlal helped them to a 2-0 win. Morocco shocked the team ranked No 2 in the FIFA Rankings and even a draw would be enough for them to progress to the knockout stage.

Canada vs Morocco Prediction

Les Rouges have been eliminated from the competition and will have no pressure to perform in this match. This might work in their favor, as they have a strong squad that has little experience playing in such a big tournament.

They have never picked up a single point at the World Cup and, having scored their first-ever goal in the competition last time around, they will be looking to remedy that in this match.

The Atlas Lions have held their own against Belgium and Croatia, two of the biggest teams in the tournament, and will be looking to continue that momentum against Canada.

They have built their play around their defensive solidity and we expect another solid performance from them in their final group-stage game. We back them to eke out a narrow win against their North American opponents and the odds of a clean sheet also look good.
