Brazil v Morocco preview
As in every World Cup, Brazil are once again among the favourites to lift the trophy. Even though they don’t have the squad that a country like Spain or France can field, you never know with the Brazilians. Nevertheless, there are plenty of doubts surrounding the South Americans. Their qualifying campaign was a struggle, whilst they have barely made an impact in recent World Cups. Can Vinicius Jr and Neymar lead the way and bring back the glory days?
Of course, the Netherlands will be decked out in orange over the coming month, but in many places you’ll also see the red and green of Morocco. The North Africans have improved considerably in recent years and even reached the semi-finals at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. There, they managed to knock out Belgium, Portugal and Spain. Can they also spring a surprise in North America, starting with a match against the country that has won the World Cup the most times?
Brazil v Morocco prediction
Can Morocco pull off an upset against the ‘giants’ of Brazil? To be honest, we’re confident of a positive outcome, especially given how well Morocco have been performing in recent years. Add to that the fact that Brazil have seemed to be struggling for some time now, and there’s a good chance Morocco will pick up at least a point. This is also because the big teams often struggle to get their campaigns off to a flying start. A double chance X2 on Morocco gives you odds of 2.20.
Brazil v Morocco odds
Wij denken dat er tijdens deze wedstrijd flink wat te juichen valt. Waarom? Omdat de laatste wedstrijden Brazilië absoluut de moeite waard zijn. In zes van de laatste acht interlands van de Goddelijke Kanaries vielen er namelijk drie of meer treffers. Ook in de twee eerdere onderlinge wedstrijden vielen er minimaal drie doelpunten. Kortom, wij gaan voor meer dan 2,5 doelpunten. Dit levert je odds van 2,00 op.
