As noted above, Canada and Morocco have a bit of World Cup history. Fans of the clubs likely remember their December ’22 meeting where Hakim Ziyech and Youssef En-Nesyri both scored in the first half and secured a 2-1 victory for Africa’s pre-eminent club and sent them to the knockout round in the process.
In ’26, oddsmakers consider the Atlas Lions to be favorites once again. Over their first four games, Hakimi, Brahim Díaz, and Yassine Bounou have handily defeated Scotland and Haiti while drawing against powerhouses Brazil and the Netherlands.
“The challenge will be a significant step up for No. 30 Canada,” The Star explained. “Morocco entered the tournament ranked No. 7 in the world, making the Atlas Lions the highest-ranked opponent Canada has faced at the 2026 World Cup.”
Prior to this match, their highest-ranked opponent was No. 19 Switzerland who took down the Canucks 2-1 in their home Vancouver.
Can Jonathan David, Stephen Eustáquio and a now-healthy Alphonso Davies pull of an upset worthy of fireworks? Or will Morocco make quick work of Canada?
