The Moroccans got their AFCON campaign of to a superb start with a 1-0 victory over fellow heavyweights Ghana in their opening game, courtesy of Sofiane Boufal’s late goal. Another win here would send them through into the next round with ease.

The tiny island nation of Comoros are making their debut at the tournament but gave a strong account of themselves as they went down 1-0 to Gabon in their opener.

Morocco vs Comoros team news

Knowing that victory would almost certainly secure their spot in the knockout stage, Morocco are likely to name a full-strength side again with a view to resting players in their third match.

Paris Saint-Germain full-back Achraf Hakimi is their star man after Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech was left out of the squad for the tournament over a disciplinary issue.

Morocco vs Comoros prediction

Comoros were far from disgraced in their opener but they faced a Gabon side without star men Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Mario Lemina because of Covid.

Against a Morocco side who many fancy as dark horses for the tournament, they may find the going markedly tougher.

Morocco to win 3-0.
