France defeated England to earn a spot in the World Cup semifinals in Qatar in 2022.  Their opponents, Morocco, have been the tournament’s surprise package and every time they are written off, they defy the odds and survive to fight another day but can they defeat the reigning world champions and advance to the World Cup final as the first African team?

Morocco will face another huge challenge on Wednesday night after making history by becoming the first African team to get to a World Cup semifinal. Coming into this match, the Africans had won their last 11 games in a row and had not conceded a goal in open play during their World Cup run so far. 

France are in spectacular goal scoring form in their campaign thus far, scoring two or more goals in four of the five games they’ve played. However, it’s important to remember that France has yet to record a clean sheet in any of their previous matches. Given France’s incredible attacking depth and Morocco’s stellar defensive play, this might be Wednesday night’s matchup of the best attack versus the best defense.

France and Morocco have tied twice in their previous four meetings, and the Quarterfinal performances of both sides indicate that a draw is most likely to occur on Wednesday night after 90 minutes. Harry Kane’s late missed penalty gave France a narrow edge over England, and Morocco has shown that they are a very well-organized and solid defensive team that will annoy France and even Mbappe.

France have not played their best football to date, and they struggled against England. If Kane had not missed his second penalty, they could have lost without a doubt. Nevertheless, France are expected to end Morocco’s unexpected run to the semi-finals and Unibet is offering a tasty 11/20 for France to progress to the final.
