In the match of the 1/8 finals of the FIFA World Cup, the players of the national teams of Morocco and Spain will fight face to face. Which of the rivals will get the victory in this confrontation? Our sports portal evaluates the opponents' chances of success.
Morocco No one could have imagined that in the same group with Croatia, Belgium and Canada, the Moroccans would be able to get 7 points and take the first place in the quartet.
But the reality is that the African national team came to the finish line first, and got, however, to the Spanish national team, which lost the competition to Japan and became the second. By the way, after a goalless draw with Croatia, the Moroccans were able to beat Belgium (2:0) and Canada (2:1) in turn. The team approaches this match in a great mood and with the desire to knock out another top team from the tournament.
Spain
And what about Spain? The team of guests started the World Cup with a confident victory over Costa Rica with a score of 7:0, after which the "red fury" painted a peaceful outcome with Germany (1:1). In the match of the third round, the Spaniards played against Japan and lost to their opponent with a score of 1:2. The team came out of its group from the second place, but it will be extremely difficult for it in the match with Morocco, given the team's commitment to the result. With such a game that the team showed in the game with Japan, it will have nothing to catch in the 1/8 finals.
Statistics and figures:
- Spain is the favorite of the meeting;Morocco has a 10-match unbeaten streak;
- Spain has not won in two meetings in a row;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 2:2.
- Forecast
I believe that the class in this meeting will still take its toll.
Our bet in the game will be in favor of the Spanish team, which, according to our assumptions, will be able to defeat the opponent with a score of 2:1. The struggle will be persistent, and this will affect the result.
