LiontipsScotland vs Morocco: betting tip (cf 1.70) and bets on the World Cup match
Command Analysis
Current form
Steve Clark's team topped Group C and took a big step towards the World Cup playoffs. Let's remind, even the third place gives good chances for the 1/16 finals. The Scots have three points in their piggy bank, and if the national team gets at least a draw in the two remaining matches, it is more likely to be in the next round.
The first round match against Haiti turned out to be historic. The blue and white have not participated in the World Championship since 1998, and the Haitians played their first World Cup match in 52 years. And after such a long absence, the British won their first tournament in North America. Scotland acted pragmatically, had the advantage and did not lose concentration throughout the meeting. The outcome of the match was decided by a single goal scored in the 27th minute after a 1-0 rebound.

Current form
Morocco is one of the strongest national teams not only on the African continent, but also ranks eighth in the FIFA rankings. The red-greens have participated in seven world championships, but they have not yet been able to climb the podium.
In the first round, the Moroccan team scored a goalless draw with Brazil. The Atlas lions unexpectedly scored first and once again forced us to talk about ourselves. Mohamed Wabi's team looked bolder, pushed the ball towards the opponent's goal more confidently, and it seemed that the second goal of the Africans was coming, but the Brazilians managed to score - Real Madrid star Vinicius saved the five-time world champions from defeat. As a result, it was a 1-1 draw, which proved that Morocco can compete on equal terms with the best teams in the world.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ager and Ezzalzouzi were injured in the national team.
Interesting betting trends
- In the last 20 matches, the Moroccan national team has scored 16 victories.
- In the last five games, the Atlas Lions scored at least two goals.
Approximate composition: Bunu – Hakimi, Diop, Riad, Mazraoui – Amrabat, El-Aynaoui –Diaz, El-Hannous, Rahimi – Saibari.

Tip and bets
The bookmakers are rightfully making the African national team the favorites for today's match. It's hard to argue with that, given the recent results. The Moroccans have not lost, taking into account all tournaments since August last year, and have won 16 games in these games. In the first match against Brazil, the Atlas Lions acted as pragmatically as possible, and the final 1-1 draw was in their favor. I was also impressed by the quality of football, which was noticeably higher than the last Africa Cup of Nations, and Mohamed Wabi's players are unlikely to have problems with scoring chances today.
The Scottish national team doesn't look so confident with more powerful opponents. The Europeans recently lost to Japan and Côte d'Ivoire, and the victory in the first round over Haiti should not be counted. We expect in the betting tip that the favorite will not experience difficulties and will surely win.
Prediction – Morocco wins with a coefficient of 1.70
Bet on total
The Moroccans have been playing low-scoring opponents lately, and in the last six out of ten games, no more than two goals have been scored. At the same time, the Scots can park the bus and have conceded only two goals in their last five matches, three of which have finished bottom in total. We believe that the opponents will play confidently on the defensive, and we advise you to pay attention to betting on a lower total.
The betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.65
Betting on corners
In their matches, the Atlas Lions serve an average of four corners per game, while Scotland serve 4.5. We believe that more than eight corners will be served in today's match.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is more than 8.5 with a coefficient of 1.88
