Head to Head


Morocco hold a 3-0 lead over Central African Republic across five meetings with two draws.

The nations last met on Saturday as Morocco romped to a 5-0 home win.

Central African Republic Form


Les Fauves began World Cup qualifiers in June with a 1-0 win at home to Chad. A 4-3 loss away at Ghana followed in another qualifier for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. 

In September, they began AFCON qualifiers with a 3-1 win over Lesotho. A 2-0 defeat followed away in Gabon.

Their hopes of reaching the 2026 AFCON were dealt a blow on Saturday as they were thrashed 5-0 away by Morocco.

Defender Dylan Mboumbouni is doubtful after going off injured in the last match. Guingamp forward Tieri-Teddy Godame has three goals in six caps but misses this match. 

Amiens forward Louis Mafouta has 16 goals for his country in 28 caps and will carry his nation’s slim hopes here.

Morocco Form


Morocco lost 2-0 to South Africa to crash out of the AFCON in last-16 earlier this year. They have since won five qualifiers for major tournaments. 

In June of this year, they won two World Cup qualifiers: a 2-1 home win vs Zambia preceded 6-0 win away at Congo. A 4-1 win in AFCON qualifying followed in September. 

After a last-gasp goal to win 1-0 vs Lesotho, they made it nine points from nine in AFCON qualifying on Saturday. A 5-0 home thrashing of Central African Republic saw five different goalscorers.
