Morocco vs Malawi Prediction & Betting tips
The Moroccan team leaves as a favorite due to the collective potential it has and especially for the field factor. For this reason and knowing that his opponent is somewhat irregular in his actions, we believe that the local has what it takes to manage the times and win the game even by a goal difference. Paints to be an intense duel and fought in the midfield, but favorable to Morocco for its greater individual hierarchy. In the end, he may end up winning well or badly, as he has players of higher quality when attacking.
Morocco:
After having completed a more than interesting World Cup, the Moroccan side will face its first match after what happened in Russia 2 months ago. His goal is to win again and get into the fight to qualify for the African Cup of Nations 2019. If we analyze the performance of the selected, we can conclude that he left a good impression on Russian territory, despite having added only 1 point out of 9 disputed . It comes from losing 0-1 to Iran over the final, falling 1-0 against Portugal and equaling 2-2 against Spain on the final date. The most striking of the first two games is that the Africans dominated the process from the initial stage, deserving better luck against Iranians and Lusitanians. Against the “Red” were effective in attack and were on the verge of taking a historical point (1-2 victory in the absence of few seconds for the final whistle).
On the other hand, do not forget that Morocco already played a qualifying match in the group and the result was not good for their aspirations (1-0 loss to Cameroon in June 2017). For this match it is expected that coach Renard will maintain the 4-5-1 system he used regularly in the World Cup. Of course, the logic indicates that their boys risk from the initial stage, trying to advance the lines in a constant way by the center of the field and by the bands. As an added fact, we tell you that the Moroccans are characterized by handling the ball a lot and by being polite by nature. One of the most representative players of this proposal is the Ajax offensive midfielder, Ziyech (physique and style similar to that of the Argentine Ángel Di Maria).
Malawi:
The present of this selected can be classified as acceptable, although irregular in terms of positive results. It is enough to know that you have added 6 matches without winning to corroborate this statement (5 draws and 1 loss in total). He comes from a 1-1 draw against Tanzania in October 2017, a 1-1 draw with Lesotho in November 2017 and a 0-0 draw in March 2018 against Uganda. Then played 3 matches for the COSAFA Cup, which was played in late May and early June this year (defeat 1-0 with Mauricio, 1-1 draw against Botswana and 0-0 parity with Angola). In this tournament it culminated in the last position of his group.
Continuing with the analysis, you should know that Malawi already played a qualifying match for the 2019 African Cup of Nations (triumph 1-0 against Comoros). That match was fought and adjusted on the scoreboard, despite having won 1-0 from the initial stage. For this exit is expected that the owners back their lines in a constant manner, trying to populate the midfield to not leave spaces to rival. That yes, in spite of its soccer limitations, it is still a tactical and rough eleventh in its actions. Proof of this is the large number of adjusted results that has been added in the last year.
The last match between both selected in the Moroccan field was 13 years ago, more precisely in June 2005. That day, the local won 4-1 clearly.
