Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers predictions have begun. I have also made my predictions in this regard and have a few matches outside this competition.
African teams are usually known for their low scoring affair, so don’t be surprised if we have more of under 2.5 goals in our tips.
Bet of the day.
South Africa vs Morocco, Analysis and Predictions.
Morocco and South Africa are only separated by two points in Group K after a few games, so today’s matchup will be another Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
In the other match, South Africa defeated Liberia 2-1 and drew with them 2-2 in their second leg, while Morocco also defeated Liberia 2-0.
South Africa will try to prove tough against Morocco.
Bafana Bafana needed to defeat Liberia badly, and they succeeded in doing so, keeping their chances of qualifying for the 2024 AFCON alive.
The South African team’s leading scorer this time around is Al Ahly’s Percy Tau, who will enter this match looking to record his 14th goal in his 37th appearance.
Morocco will target to maintain their number one spot at the table.
With a 2-1 victory over South Africa in the second leg, the Atlas Lions (Morocco) are still in first place in the group with six points, thanks to goals from Youssef En-Nesyri and El Kaabi. Foster scored for South Africa as well in that match.
Morocco recently performed admirably to defeat Brazil in a friendly in March, while playing out draws with both Peru and Cape Verde.
Head-to-head Comparison: South Africa were beaten by Morocco in their last 2 matches.
South Africa’s team news; Both Selim Arnallah, who is out injured, and Amine Harit, who had an outstanding season for Marseille in Ligue 1, will be greatly missed in the midfield. Additionally, Younès Belhanda was left off the roster once more, while Adam Masina, a defender for Udinese, is now injured.
Morocco’s team news; With 19 goals in 53 appearances, Hakim Ziyech, who has rejoined the team, is currently the top scorer for Morocco. After successful World Cup campaigns, Sofian Boufal, Imran Lousza, and Sofyan Amrabat are were recalled to the roster.
Match Facts.
- South Africa have conceded goals consecutively in all of their last 4 games.
- Morocco are victorious in their last 7 AFCON qualification matches.
Verdict.
Even at home, Bafana Bafana are significant underdogs in this encounter. After their World Cup achievements and a 2-1 friendly victory over Brazil, Morocco will be feeling confident. The Atlas Lions (Morocco) are my pick to defeat the host in this game or at least, get a draw.
Prediction.
My first choice prediction is a combination of a win or draw double chance for Morocco and under 3.5 @1.45 while my big odd prediction is a straight win for Morocco @1.95
