Scotland vs Morocco Prediction (19.06.2026)

Morocco starts with a strong performance at the 2026 World Cup after drawing against Brazil. Next up is a duel with Scotland.

"The Scots" secured a victory

Steve Clarke's boys achieved an extremely valuable success against Haiti, and at least one more point from the next two matches would secure their advancement to the knockout stage with a 99% probability, at least as the third-best team in the group. It won't be easy against Morocco. The African team is exceptionally strong and is a factor on the international stage that everyone must take into account. The Moroccans are also more experienced in such tournaments, so the advantage is on their side. The islanders will likely want to set up solidly and look for their chances on counterattacks and set pieces.

Bet on under 2.5 goals

I predict no more than two goals in this match.

Scotland managed to beat Haiti as expected and started their return to the World Cup finals with a narrow victory. However, the Scots have never won more than one match at a major tournament. The team has won seven of their last ten matches before the tournament, including three losses, one of which was in a friendly against another African representative, Ivory Coast.

Morocco has not lost in 30 consecutive matches in regular time. The semi-finalist from the last World Cup once again showed that they will be a very tough opponent and had a good first match in the tournament, finishing 1:1 with Brazil. Morocco is unbeaten in five of their last six encounters against European teams in the group stage of World Cups. In Scotland's last appearance at the World Cup in 1998, the two teams were again in the same group, and the Moroccans won 3:0.

Morocco should prove to be the better team. From the first matches of both teams, the Moroccans made a better impression against Brazil than the Scots did against Haiti, so I am going with them in this match.
