  • Following Morocco’s early qualification to the last-16, manager Hervé Renard made changes to his playing 11 for the last group game.
  • It came at the back with centre-back Medhi Benatia getting the rest and Nabil Dirar, whose natural position is midfield but has been deployed at right-back in the first two games in this competition, only came off the bench in the 2nd half.

  • Expect the duo to start the game. In addition, Achraf Hakimi will start at left-back while Wolves’ Romain Saïss will partner Benatia at the back.
  • Elsewhere, changes are not expected from Morocco, who are pretty much settled in the midfield and forward positions.
  • The likes of Ziyech, Amrabat and En-Nesyri gives manager no chance of flirting with the squad. The trio is good to go in your Dream11 fantasy football team.

Morocco Probable XI:

Yassine Bounou (GK), Dirar, Benatia, Saiss, Hakimi, Boussoufa, El Ahmadi, Belhanda, Ziyech, Amrabat, En-Nesyri


Benin Team News:

  • No reported injury concerns from Benin’s squad at this moment.
  • However, star striker Steve Mounie is suspended for the next game following his yellow card in the last match, which was his 2nd of the competition.

Possible INs and OUTs of this game:

  • Head coach Michel Dussuyer will have to find a suitable replacement to fill-in for his suspended striker Mounie.
  • We expect a tactical change. David Djigla is an option to start up front, while Dussuyer could stock his midfield to make the life harder for his opponents.

  • That said, Mickaël Poté and Cebio Soukou are two most gifted players in Benin’s squad and can’t be left out on the bench like last time around. The duo is expected to start, while Jordan Adéoti is a sure shot as a defensive midfielder.

Benin squad for the Africa Cup of Nations 2019:

  • Goalkeepers: Saturnin Allagbe, Fabien Farnolle, Cherif Dine Kakpo
  • Defenders: Khaled Adenon, Moise Adilehou, Seidou Baraze, Rodrigue Fassinou, Emmanuel Imorou, David Kiki, Junior Salomon, Olivier Verdon\
