Canada Team News
Canada produce a very good performance in the first round against Belgium and they didn’t deserve to lose in that game. But in the second round against Croatia, they were not at that level. They started the game well and took an early lead, but Croatia showed that they are a much better squad at the moment. They scored four goals and win the game.
Canada is eliminated from the World Cup. One round to go they are without any chances to go through. They are without points and Croatia and Morocco have four. The mathematics is very clear.
It’s a shame for Canada because they deserve more from the first two games, especially in the first round. They showed that they can play very interesting football with great press and they are very quick with the ball.
Interesting thing is that this is Canada’s second World Cup and in the previous one in 1986 they finished a group stage with three defeats. So, they are still without any point in World Cup history.
Morocco Team News
The African selection is in a very acceptable position one round before the end of the group stage. Morocco beat Belgium and won three very big and important points. They have four points and the good thing is that Croatia and Belgium play against each other.
So, the calculation is very clear. If Croatia beat Belgium – Morocco is second, no matter what they did against Canada. If Croatia and Belgium drew their game, Morocco can go further even with a defeat but that defeat must be only by two goals. If Belgium beat Croatia, Morocco must win at least a point. We see that if Morocco wants to be in the second stage they must avoid defeat against Canada.
Morocco played two great games against the two biggest favourites in this group. They kept two clean sheets and showed that they can play fantastic in defence but at the same thing they can cause big problems with their quality players in attack.
Morocco is eight games without a defeat in all competitions and an amazing fact is that they kept seven consecutive clean sheets.
H2H
They played a friendly game in 2016 and Morocco win 4-0.

Canada vs. Morocco Prediction
Canada is a good team but needs experience in the big tournament. Both Belgium and Croatia, especially Belgium, beat them because they are much more experienced teams. Morocco has a great chance to qualify for the knockout stage for the second time in its history. The last time that they were in the knockout stage of the World Cup was in 1986.
We believe that they can pick up at least a point here.
