FIFA World Cup 2022 – Canada vs Morocco, Group F, match preview, predicted lineups
Canada and Morocco go head to head on Thursday in FIFA World Cup 2022 Group F as the tournament moves ahead. Morocco go into this game as the favourites.
Kick-off : 6:00 PM (Local)
Venue : Al Thumama Stadium, Doha
Morocco gave a good example of themselves by performing brilliantly in this FIFA World Cup so far. They started off by drawing against the Croats before upsetting Belgium 2-0 in the next game. They should qualify to next round.
The Atlas Lions have been resilient at the back and they will hope to keep up the good work on Thursday. Attacking wise toon they can deliver and they will hope to.
Manager Walid Regragui will deploy a 4-3-3 system.
On the other hand, Canada have been a flop side at this World Cup and they need to work upon it if they are to impress at the next tournament which they will co-host in 2026.
The Voyageurs lack defensively against stronger opponents and it is something they need to resolve. While attacking wise they can be more creative.
Manager John Herdman might go with a 4-4-2 system on Thursday.
Team news and possible lineups
Ismael Kone and Junior Hoilett are both available for Canada for the Morocco game and might get a start.
As for the Moroccans themselves, they will likely go with the same XI in the previous game.
Morocco XI : Bounou, Hakimi, Aguerd, Saiss, Mazraoui, Amrabat, Ounahi, Amallah, Ziyech, En-Nesyri, Boufal.

Prediction
Expecting Morocco to dominate in this game an important fixture for them and I can see them getting past Canada 2-1.
