Under 2.5.

Morocco proved their elite caliber by finishing fourth at the last World Cup, and they head into this match with an aggressive attack that has produced an impressive 13 goals in recent friendlies.

Morocco proved their elite tournament pedigree by finishing fourth at the last World Cup, and their clinical attack has been in fine form, racking up 13 goals across recent friendly matches. On the other hand, while Brazil always boasts immense offensive firepower capable of scoring against anyone, their shaky defense has struggled for stability, failing to keep a single clean sheet during their pre-tournament warm-ups.
