Morocco vs Canada Prediction World Cup Today

Both Teams to Score -- Yes (+105)

Morocco isn't the same defensive-minded squad they were during their magical semifinal run in 2022, and that leads me to this bet.

Last time out, Morocco took it to the Netherlands, handling 70% of the possession versus a Dutch side that usually controls the ball. Despite needing penalties to survive, Morocco played dang well, continuously showing the impetus to attack en route to placing five shots on target. It's a different brand of soccer than what we saw from them four years ago, and it's resulted in both sides scoring in three of Morocco's four matches in this tourney, including a 4-2 game against a Haiti side that was blanked in their two other contests.

Canada are an aggressive pressing team under Jesse Marsch, playing a style that can lead to chances at both ends. They've scored at least once in all four of their matches. They're also not all that strong on D. In spite of keeping a clean sheet versus South Africa in the Round of 32, Canada let a meh South African side hold 58% of the possession and generate a few good chances. Morocco should be able to do the same, and they have the quality to convert those chances.

I think we'll see a pretty open game, and while I nearly wrote up over 2.5 goals (+128), both teams to score is my preferred bet.
