They&#8217;ve picked up their first win, made it out of the groups for the first time, and won their first knockout game. Now, they&#8217;ll be looking for a historic quarter-final appearance. Canada haven&#8217;t had it all their way, however, having finished second in their group &#8212; taking them away from their home path. They left it extremely late in the round-of-32, needing an injury-time winner to see off <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/stats\/clubs\/south-africa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">South Africa<\/a> and set up this match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morocco, meanwhile, are looking to build on the success of four years ago. They became the first African nation to reach the World Cup semi-finals, ultimately finishing fourth in Qatar. Morocco are unbeaten at the World Cup so far, finishing second in their group with seven points from three games. They only finished below group winners <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/stats\/clubs\/brazil\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brazil<\/a> on goal difference. Their last-32 game against the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/stats\/clubs\/netherlands\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Netherlands<\/a> went all the way, thanks to Issa Diop&#8217;s injury-time equaliser, with Morocco eventually winning on penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will be the fifth meeting between these two sides, with Morocco winning three of the previous four &#8212; alongside one draw. They beat Canada in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-toplist\">\n        <div class=\"sq-toplist__items\">\n\t\t\t    <div\n            class=\"sq-toplist__item\"\n            data-entity-id=\"1381273\"\n            data-offer-id=\"1381470\"\n    >\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-container\">\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"logo\" class=\"sq-toplist__logo\" style=\"background:#01644a\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/04\/29162841\/bet365.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Bet365 Logo\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer-box\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__bookmaker\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"brand_name\">bet365<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-tablet-visible\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-mobile-visible\">\n                    <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                <\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"cta\" class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary sq-btn--full\">Claim Offer<\/a>                <div class=\"sq-rating\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__text\">Our Score<\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__value\">9.5<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/bet365-review\/\" class=\"sq-review-link\">\n                    <span>Read our review<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <ul class=\"sq-toplist__features\">\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Bet \u00a310 get \u00a330<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Excellent Football Betting Options<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Extensive Bet-Builder<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Multi-Award Winning Bookmaker<\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t            <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-tc\"><p>New customers can sign up using bonus code SQUAWKA365, bet \u00a310 and get \u00a330 in Free Bets.

The Canadian captain has missed most of the tournament so far during injury, a big blow for the co-hosts. But he made a positive impact after coming on &#8212; albeit as a winger &#8212; and will be eyeing a first start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesse Marsch may opt against starting him, instead leaving him to come on and add fresh legs later in the game. So Richie Laryea will likely continue at left-back, keeping Canada&#8217;s defence very settled. Maxime Crepeau will start in goal with Alistair Johnston at right-back. Derek Cornelius is expected to continue at centre-back and Moise Bombito will partner him after recently returning from injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stephen Eustaquio will continue to captain Canada from the midfield in Davies&#8217; absence, partnered by Nathan Saliba. Tajon Buchanan and Liam Millar are the go-to wing pairing on the right and left, respectively. Jonathan David will lead the line, and he could be joined by Cyle Larin who was dropped for Tani Oluwaseyi last time out. <\/p>\n\n\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><strong>Bet \u00a310 &amp; Get \u00a330 in Free Bets with Bet365<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>Not signed up to bet365 yet?

But the centre-back has shaken off the knock so will be expected to start this crunch game. And he may form part of an unchanged starting lineup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mohamed Ouahbi has a favoured starting XI at the World Cup, naming the same lineup in three of Morocco&#8217;s four matches so far. Riad will be joined by centre-back partner Issa Diop, who scored the late equaliser against the Netherlands. Achraf Hakimi should start on the right side of defence, with Noussair Mazraoui on the left. Yassine Bounou will start in goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the other end of the pitch, Ismael Saibari will lead the line looking to build on his decent tournament so far. Azzedine Ounahi will play behind him in the No.10, with Brahim Diaz and Bilal El Khannouss on the flanks. Neil El Aynaoui and Ayyoub Bouaddi are expected to be the starting double pivot, as usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-canada-vs-morocco-predicted-lineups\">Canada vs Morocco predicted lineups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Canada (4-4-2):<\/strong> Crepeau; Johnston, Bombito, Cornelius, Laryea; Buchanan, Saliba, Eustaquio, Millar; Larin, J David.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Morocco (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Bounou; Hakimi, Diop, Riad, Mazraoui; El Aynaoui, Bouaddi; Diaz, Ounahi, El Khannouss; Saibari. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/world-cup-2026-betting-tips-predictions\/\"><strong>World Cup predictions &amp; tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/world-cup-outright-odds\/\"><strong>World Cup outright odds <\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/world-cup-2026-fixtures-results\/\"><b>World Cup fixtures &amp; results<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/world-cup-2026-betting-offers\/\"><b>World Cup free bets<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canada and Morocco will both be looking to book their spots in the 2026 World Cup quarter-finals when they face off on Saturday at 6pm (UK time).
