Expert Picks

Brazil have so much attacking talent and such a storied history that people may be too quick to overlook Morocco. This is a Morocco team that made it to the semifinals of the 2022 World Cup and proved they can go toe-to-toe with anyone. They play a strong, physical brand of football. They don’t allow much space, and they don’t let individuals beat them with ease. Brazil may be the more talented side, but this match should be closer than the market suggests. There is value on Morocco double chance.

Everyone and their mother (including my own) thinks that Brazil are going to roll over their group. They have legendary manager Carlo Ancelotti at the helm of the team for this World Cup, and he's made it very clear that he plans on fixing Brazil and making a deep run. This makes sense, however, don't count out Morocco. They made it to the Semi-finals in 2022 and still have their core team together. They looked fantastic against Norway in their friendly, and this is a team that knows how to play against Physical South American opponents. I believe this ends in a draw.
