As part of the match of the 3rd round of the Arab Nations Cup, the players of the national teams of Morocco and Saudi Arabia will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Morocco
As originally expected, the Moroccan national team has no problems in the group stage. The team has excellent resources and can easily win the tournament. In the first two meetings, she was able to arrange two defeats of 4:0. First, Palestine fell under the hot hand of the Moroccans, after which Jordan already got. With six points in the asset, the Moroccan national team is in first place in Group C, and has already guaranteed itself a place in the playoffs.
Saudi Arabia
The Arabians still have a chance to make it to the playoffs of the tournament, but for this the team needs to win. In general, there are opportunities for this, but very doubtful. The Arabians scored only 1 point in two matches, which is why they are on the third line in the standings of Group C. In the first round, the Saudis lost to Jordan with a score of 0:1, and in the second they were able to snatch a draw in the battle with Palestine (1:1).
Statistics and figures:
- Morocco is the favorite of the meeting;
- The Moroccans have an 11-match winning streak;
- The Saudis cannot win in the last 2 matches;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of Saudi Arabia.
Forecast
I believe that Morocco will be able to win this meeting with confidence. Our bet will be in favor of the team of nominal owners, and, to be precise, on their handicap.
