This Friday, Morocco will face Niger in a key match of the seventh round of the CAF World Cup qualifiers at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat. Let’s look at the best goals bet for this game, which offers promising odds.
Match preview
Morocco enters this match as the clear favorite in the group, having earned a perfect 15 points from 15 possible. The team has scored 14 goals and conceded only 2, showcasing their strength on both ends of the field. They consistently perform well, regardless of the opponent or location.
At home, Morocco has not conceded a single goal and holds an impeccable record in the qualifiers. The coaching staff has effectively rotated the squad, keeping the team’s energy high. With five straight qualifying victories, Morocco’s determination and preparation are evident. Given their depth and form, they are unlikely to lose their top position in the group.
Niger sits second in the group but is nine points behind the leader and has shown inconsistency. With six points from four matches, their results reflect challenges against mid-table teams rather than readiness to compete with the best. Their most recent match ended in a goalless draw against Algeria, emphasizing their difficulties in attack.
Under coach Badou Zaki, Niger has relied on solid defense and counter-attacks, but this approach may struggle against stronger opponents. Problems with finishing, weak wing play, and inconsistency have hindered their progress. Niger has not won away in this qualifying round, and a trip to Rabat is unlikely to improve their record.
Probable line-ups
- Morocco: Al Harrar, Moufid, Arrassi, Louadni, Belammari, El Mahraoui, Bash, Khrimat, Riahi, Warhan Ait, Mulua
- Niger: Tandja — Moktar, Kassali, Abduramane, Adamu Djibo — Hassana, Assane, Abdurahmane Djibo — Lukumane, Nuhu, Goumey
Match facts and head-to-head
- Morocco has won the last 5 matches against Niger.
- Morocco’s average goals scored in qualifying is 2.8 per match.
- Niger has not won in their last five games in all competitions.
Prediction
Morocco stands out in all key aspects—squad strength, form, consistency, and historical matchups. It’s hard to see Niger posing a threat on Morocco’s home ground. The recommendation is to bet on “Over 3.0 goals” at odds of 1.75, given the attacking capabilities of the hosts.
