Morocco vs Haiti | FIFA World Cup 2026 — Group Stage | Preview and Prediction

A settled and confident Morocco side will take on Haiti knowing that they already have one foot in the round of 32, with Brazil and Scotland going head-to-head in the other Group C encounter.

For this Group C game at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, here we present our preview and prediction.

FIFA WC26 | Group C: MAR vs HAI | 03:30 IST, 25 June 2026

The Atlas Lions have once again proved to be the best-performing side among what has been an underwhelming African contingent at this World Cup. They followed their strong performance against Brazil with another professional and accomplished one against Scotland, with the victory putting them in a firm position to qualify for the round of 32.

Ismael Saibari has been the pick of their attackers, having registered another well-taken finish against the Scots following his goal against Brazil. Ayyoub Bouaddi continues to impress in the middle of the park, while Noussair Mazraoui keeps things ticking from the back with his composure and nous.
A win against Haiti will not only guarantee qualification, but it could also propel them to the top of the group depending on how the Brazil–Scotland game pans out, making this a great opportunity to not only get the win, but also rack up the score in order to boost goal difference.

For Haiti, it is all about signing off with some style as their first World Cup sojourn in 52 years comes to an end. They have been willing and industrious in the way they have approached every game and put everything on the line in the 90 minutes on the pitch.

Unfortunately, Les Grenadiers failed to take their chances and be more clinical against Scotland in what was otherwise a pretty admirable performance, while Brazil were on an entirely different level for them in terms of skill and quality. But Haiti will take heart from their exposure at this tournament and look to make qualifying for World Cup finals a regularity, which in turn will help the prospects of the nation as a whole.

Morocco obviously start as heavy favourites to win this game. It will come down to how many they are able to score here, but expect them to be comfortable victors.

Score Prediction: Morocco 4–0 Haiti
Venue: Atlanta Stadium, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
