Morocco v A3/B3/F3 (Africa) Betting Tips [25 January 2022]

Morocco face Malawi at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium in the Round of 16 of the African Cup of Nations. The home side finished top of Group C over teams like Gabon, Comoros and Ghana. Morocco beat Ghana and Comoros in the first two games in the group stages before drawing 2-2 with Gabon in an exciting Matchday three encounter. Morocco are one of the strongest sides in the continent and are firm favourites to challenge for the title. They have lost just once in their last thirty-one matches and thus are in an amazing run of form.

Malawi sneaked into the Round of 16 as they finished third in Group B with teams like Senegal, Guinea and Zimbabwe part of the group. They lost the opening group game to Guinea before beating Zimbabwe. The third game with Senegal ended in a goalless draw. Malawi have won just twice in their last eight matches and do not pose a challenge to a well-settled Morocco side. They also have not beaten Morocco in the last seven meetings between the two teams, which makes it unlikely that the visitors will walk away with a favourable result in this Round of 16 tie.

Malawi have been one of the most improved sides in the continent but are unlikely to trouble a well-settled Morocco side in the knock-out rounds. We are backing Morocco to lead at both half time and full time.
