World Cup 2022: France vs Morocco Preview & Odds

Reigning champions France overcame England 2-1 in their quarter-final to book a place in the FIFA World Cup 2022 last four. An Olivier Giroud header was the deciding moment, with the 36-year-old netting his fourth tournament goal and showing no sign of slowing down in his veteran years. Les Bleus will face another tricky task as they look to dispatch of a well-drilled Morocco outfit.

Morocco have already made history at FIFA World Cup 2022, becoming the first African nation to reach a semi-final in this competition. They will have the support of a continent behind them on Wednesday night, but France are by far their toughest test to date. Morocco have been reliant on their impenetrable defence, which will come under enormous pressure at the hands of the French.

France are massive favourites to win in 90 minutes at 1.53, with a draw priced at 3.94. Morocco have been underdogs throughout FIFA World Cup 2022, so it comes as no surprise to see their odds at 7.40. There is a good chance a single goal could settle this semi-final, with under 1.5 goals (2.90) looking a good option to nearly treble your money. Kylian Mbappe (4.00) was kept quiet by England, but is leading the odds to open the scoring against Morocco.

France vs Morocco: Key Players

Mbappe is the obvious choice, but we’ve gone with Antoine Griezmann as France’s key player. He has been crucial to Didier Deschamps’ system throughout FIFA World Cup 2022. With Morocco set up to reduce the space in central areas, Griezmann’s ability to float between lines will be pivotal in helping to break down the defence.

Morocco’s main man is Sofyan Amrabat. He has been incredible in the middle of the park during the tournament and may well have earned himself a big money move. The 26-year-old will have the unenviable task of breaking up play and nullifying the impact of France’s midfield three. If he is unable to contain Griezmann, Morocco likely lose the tie.

France vs Morocco Betting Tips

France win to nil – 1.92

It’s not Morocco’s attack which has caught the eye. They will defend with their lives, but we can’t see them offering much at the other end or stopping France from breaking through.

Giroud anytime goalscorer and under 2.5 goals – 7.50

Morocco will do their best to close any space in the middle of the pitch. As a result, France could have plenty of joy down the wings. If they get their service right, Giroud could be a crucial outlet in deciding the outcome of the game.
