Brazil land in Group C with Morocco, Haiti and Scotland. The opener on June 13 is Brazil vs Morocco — the most compelling match of the group. Morocco reached the 2022 World Cup semi-finals and are no pushover for any opponent.
Group composition
| Team | Coach | WC odds | Key players |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brazil | Carlo Ancelotti | ~9.25 | Vinícius Jr, Raphinha, Neymar (injury doubt) |
| Morocco | Walid Regragui | ~35.00 | Hakimi, Ziyech, En-Nesyri |
| Scotland | Steve Clarke | outsider | McGinn, Adams |
| Haiti | — | outsider | — |
Brazil vs Morocco: June 13 opener
| Brazil | Draw | Morocco | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Approx odds | 1.80 | 3.60 | 4.50 |
Morocco conceded just 1 goal in regulation time throughout the entire 2022 World Cup. With Neymar’s fitness uncertain for the opener, Under 2.5 goals (~1.80) is well-supported by the statistical base — Morocco’s defensive structure and Brazil’s likely cautious approach with a new coach at a tournament.
Group exit forecast
1st: Brazil | 2nd: Morocco | Exit: Scotland, Haiti.
