Morocco
In their last match, Morocco secured a 2-0 victory over Libya, extending their unbeaten run in the qualifiers to five games (4 wins, 1 draw). The team has displayed solid defensive performances, conceding only one goal in the current qualifying campaign. Morocco leads their group with 13 points and is on the verge of securing a spot in the next round.
- Morocco has not lost in regular time in their last 8 home matches in World Cup qualifiers (7 wins, 1 draw).
- The team has kept a clean sheet in 6 of their last 8 home games in this tournament.
- In 5 of Morocco's last 7 home matches in World Cup qualifiers, they have scored at least two goals.
Tanzania
Tanzania suffered a 1-3 defeat at home to Ghana in their previous match. This result marked their third consecutive loss in the qualifiers, leaving them with just 4 points in the standings. Tanzania's chances of advancing to the next stage are slim, and they need a win to keep their hopes alive.
- The team has not won in regular time in their last 5 away matches in World Cup qualifiers (2 draws, 3 losses).
- Tanzania has conceded at least two goals in 4 of their last 5 away games in this tournament.
- In 3 of Tanzania's last 5 away matches in World Cup qualifiers, they have failed to score.
Morocco vs. Tanzania: Match Prediction
Morocco has been in excellent form throughout the qualifiers, especially at home, where they have shown strong defensive capabilities. Tanzania, on the other hand, has struggled away from home, conceding goals frequently. Given Morocco's current momentum and Tanzania's defensive vulnerabilities, I expect Morocco to dominate this encounter.
My prediction: Total under 3.5 goals
