Key players to watch

Morocco

The main focus for Morocco is their attacking structure, where a dominant midfield and wide runners can stretch Burundi across the pitch. If Morocco settle quickly, the hosts should create enough chances to control the scoreboard and the mood of the match.

Burundi

Burundi’s route into the game is more direct: stay organised, frustrate Morocco, and look for set-piece moments or breakaways. Their biggest names may not get much of the ball, so defensive concentration and second-ball work become the story.
