After their performance in their first game, Morocco are a must-watch against Scotland, and the reigning African champions are favorites with good reason. Morocco showed they’re the real deal and a legitimate potential World Cup winner in their draw with Brazil, which is why myScotland might top the group thanks to playing Haiti, not Brazil, in their opener, but after the first set of games, it’sAt times in that 1-1 draw, the Moroccans gave Brazil a soccer lesson.
This is a team that is incredibly hard-working. They press persistently from the front, use their, and have a young midfielder in Ayyoub Bouaddi who put up one of the performances of the World Cup so far.
Meanwhile, the Scots toiled to a 1-0 win over Haiti in a game that was evenly split in terms of possession, with Haiti actuallyincredible value on the spread . Morocco has the technical ability to dictate play and keep the ball, forcing a tiring Scottish team to work even harder off the ball in the heat.
Morocco’s ability to thread balls through Brazil’s backline can be replicated here, and if it is, then the reigning AFCON champs take all three points and win by two or more goals. One thing that can be said about this Scotland team is that they work hard, and that gets them a long way, especially against superior teams.
That hard work alone probably keeps this at 2-0, with Scotland knowing heavy defeats against Morocco and Brazil could cause an issue in qualifying for the next round. So if they’re two goals behind and the game is lost, it's in their interest to really defend deep and stop Morocco from putting up a big score. , and the reason that I think it’ll finish with Under 2.5 goals, despite Morocco scoring multiple goals.
They lack real spark in the middle of the field. Scott McTominay is an excellent player, but he thrives on power and physicality, something that won’t trouble the Moroccans. They limited Brazil to just eight shots and an xG of 0.36, and they can handle Che Adams and Lawrence Shankland, two players without dynamic pace.
