Morocco vs Ghana Preview – prediction, team news, lineups | International Friendly 2026
The Atlas Lions won 2-0 against Lesotho in their last game.
The first international break of the 2026-27 season is underway, featuring an exciting friendly clash between Morocco and Ghana. The game will be played at the Grand Stadium of Tangier.
The Atlas Lions are coming into this game after securing consecutive 2-0 wins against Gabon and Lesotho. They followed up on their best-ever World Cup campaign in 2022 with a run to the quarterfinals of the competition in 2026.
Ghana, on the other hand, have suffered two back-to-back losses against Ivory Coast and Gambia in the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. They were knocked out by Colombia in the Round of 32 of the FIFA World Cup. Despite this run of form, the Black Stars are well equipped to register a positive result.

Players to watch out for:
Brahim Diaz (Morocco)
The Real Madrid winger is Morocco’s superstar and arguably their most important player. He is quick, intelligent, and hard-working. After a disastrous penalty incident during the AFCON 2025 finals, Brahim Diaz had a great outing during the 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign.
Felix Afena-Gyan (Ghana)
Felix Afena-Gyan is performing very well for his nation on an individual level despite being on the losing side in the last two games. He is versatile and can play either as a focal point of the attack or as a left winger. This makes him difficult to mark and allows Felix to make an impact in the final third.
