[Ezworks]

Quarterfinal time! On Thursday, July 9 (4:00 PM ET / Boston Stadium), France face Morocco in a rematch of the 2022 World Cup semi-final (France won 2-0).

Current Form & Path to Quarterfinals

France: Dominant as usual. Unbeaten in the tournament, scoring freely and looking like serious contenders for a third straight final. Kylian Mbappé is on fire.

Morocco: The surprise package once again. They knocked out strong teams and showed the same fighting spirit that took them to 4th place in 2022. This squad wants revenge.

Key Players to Watch

France: Mbappé (goals + speed), plus a strong midfield and solid defense.

Morocco: Achraf Hakimi, Brahim Díaz, and a very organized team that can frustrate big sides with counter-attacks and set-pieces.

Betting Angles & Predictions

France are heavy favorites, but Morocco games are often tight and low-scoring.

Possible value: France to win + Under 2.5 goals, or Mbappé anytime goal.

Morocco have the heart for an upset, but France’s quality should prevail (predicted score: France 2-0 or 1-0).

This has all the ingredients for a classic: revenge story, African underdog vs European powerhouse, and knockout intensity.
