France vs Morocco Preview
France arrive at this quarter-final in devastating form, having won all five of their World Cup matches so far. Les Bleus edged past Paraguay 1-0 in the Round of 16 courtesy of a Kylian Mbappé penalty, and Didier Deschamps became the first manager to win ten World Cup knockout ties. Aurélien Tchouaméni missed that match with a thigh complaint but is expected to return, strengthening an already formidable midfield.
Morocco head into this rematch unbeaten in their last 34 internationals, a remarkable run spanning 25 victories and eight draws. Their 3-0 demolition of co-hosts Canada was emphatic, with Azzedine Ounahi grabbing a brace. However, top scorer Ismael Saibari limped off early in that fixture with a hamstring injury and remains a significant doubt. Walid Regragui's side are chasing back-to-back semi-final appearances, which would be historic for an African nation.
France's five consecutive victories in this tournament tell a story of relentless quality. With 14 goals scored and an expected goals tally of 10.6, Les Bleus have been clinical in front of goal, frequently outperforming their underlying numbers. Their knockout pedigree is staggering: 18 wins from 21 World Cup elimination matches under Didier Deschamps. The home win at 1.61 reflects this dominance and represents strong value given the historical context.
Morocco's unbeaten run of 34 internationals deserves respect, and their 3-0 demolition of Canada showed real attacking intent through Azzedine Ounahi's brace. However, the potential absence of top scorer Ismael Saibari through a hamstring problem could blunt their forward threat. Their form has included several draws in recent outings, suggesting they can be contained by elite opposition. France won this exact fixture 2-0 at the 2022 semi-final stage.
Kylian Mbappé's penalty against Paraguay underlined his big-game temperament, and with Aurélien Tchouaméni expected to return to midfield, France regain crucial balance in the centre of the pitch. The under 2.5 goals market at N/A also merits attention given the tight, tactical nature of knockout football. A French victory feels the most probable outcome, backed by superior squad depth and tournament pedigree at this level.
