Preview
Morocco comes into this on the back of four successive wins across competitions and have also begun the Qualification campaign with a win.
A 2-0 win over Sudan on MD 1 ensured a successful start with Aguerd and Abdalla’s own goal helping Morocco to the win.
The Atlas Lions have been a good side in recent years and their runner-up spot in the African Nations Championship justifies the same.
On the other hand, Guinea-Bissau got to winning ways on MD 2 when they beat Sudan 4-2 as well following an opening day stalemate.
Piqueti scored twice while Mendy and Balde’s strikes ensured a fine win for Djurtus while Abdel-Rahman scored a brace for Sudan.
Guinea-Bissau are table toppers at this point and aim to continue their strength-hold on the top spot.
