Morocco vs Mozambique prediction, H2H and probable lineups - November 14, 2025
One of Friday's friendly matches will take place at the Grand Stade de Tanger in Tangier, where the Moroccan national team will host Mozambique. I'm offering a prediction on the outcome of this clash with a solid chance of success.
Match preview
Morocco heads into this match as one of Africa's football powerhouses. Their impressive performance at the 2022 World Cup, their CHAN victory, and their youth team's world triumph have only strengthened the "Atlas Lions" position in the global rankings.
The main goal in the coming months is the home Africa Cup of Nations, and friendly games against Mozambique and Uganda are a crucial part of their preparations. The team cruised through 2026 World Cup qualification and has not conceded in four consecutive matches.
Mozambique is also gearing up for the Africa Cup of Nations, where they'll kick off against reigning champions Ivory Coast. Chiquinho Conde's squad finished second in their qualifying group, but the level of their opponents can't be compared to the class of the Moroccan team.
The team has built decent momentum this autumn, winning two of their last three games, but against top-tier opponents, the "Mambas" have struggled—evidenced by five defeats in their ten matches in 2025.
Probable lineups
- Morocco: Bounou; Mazraoui, Saïss, El Yamiq, Belamari; Amrabat, Ounahi, El Hannous; Dias, En-Nesyri, Ez Abde
- Mozambique: Ernane; B. Langa, Mexer, R. Mandava, Nanani; Nene, Amade; Gildo, P. Santos, Catamo; Ratifo
Match facts and head-to-head
- Morocco has won 8 of their last 9 matches, including qualifiers and friendlies.
- Mozambique has lost to Morocco in 3 of their previous 4 head-to-head encounters.
- Both teams are set to compete in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, which kicks off on December 21.
Prediction
Morocco is confidently building up to their home Africa Cup of Nations, showing serious intent in every match. The absence of Hakimi shouldn't prevent the hosts from extending their unbeaten run, and the difference in quality and recent statistics makes them clear favorites to win.
