Morocco vs Burkina Faso Prediction: The Atlas Lions will overwhelm their opponent

The Atlas Lions will host Burkina Faso at the Stade d’Agadir Stadium on Tuesday. Things haven’t been going well for Morocco over their previous three matches; however, we expect a commandinfg performance from the Atlas Lions against Burkina Faso, who have not won any of their last three games.

FIFA Ranking: 14th

The best-ranked team in Africa are yet to win a game since their (2-1) victory over Brazil in March. Morocco head here with two draws and a defeat against South Africa. More recently, they bowed to a loss against Bafana Bafana at the Orlando Stadium as their home team struck twice before a consolation goal by Hakim Ziyech in the 60th minute. The result left Morocco in second place with a point behind South Africa at the top of the standings.

The Atlas Lions have failed to convert their chances over the last three games, even though they had more of the ball than their opponents.

Morocco are by far the best team in Africa, and their ability to transition from defence to attack will give them the edge over Burkina Faso.

FIFA Ranking: 56th

Last three games: WWDLD

The Stallions have lost once over their previous nine games; however, they are yet to win any of their last three matches. Burkina Faso have scored twice and conceded four times in their previous three games.

Burkina Faso boasts a well-rounded squad featuring the likes of Bertrand Traore and Dango Ouattara, who are, however, injured for this encounter. More recently, they shared the spoils against a lowly-ranked Eswatini. Even though they failed to convert their shots, Burkina Faso won the group with a point ahead of Cape Verde.

Burkina Faso have been struggling lately, and they might be exposed against a desperate Morocco.

Their last seven games ended in three wins for Morocco, while Burkina Faso have recorded two wins and two games ending in a share of the spoils. The Atlas Lions will have to change their approach if they are to win against a stubborn Burkina Faso. Morocco, who postponed their encounter against Liberia because of the tragic earthquake in the country, will host the Stallions tomorrow. We expect them to be in their right state of mind for this encounter, scoring more than two times for 2.11.

Morocco will get off to a flying start and might get a halftime victory here for 2.04.

Influential players Bertrand Traore and Dango Ouattara won’t feature in this encounter, and it’ll be a massive disappointment for this exciting encounter. We expect a dominant display from the Atlas LIons with a correct score of (3-0) for 7.80.

Good luck!
