Cameroon vs Morocco Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | AFCON 2025 quarter-final

The Atlas Lions dominated the proceedings when these sides last met.

The Cameroon national football team are all set to face the Morocco national football team for the quarterfinals of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. This is going to be an intense outing, which will take place at the Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah.

The Indomitable Lions are coming in after securing a 2-1 win against South Africa in their round of 16 fixture. It was a good performance by them, but they conceded a last-minute goal, which made them uncomfortable for a moment. The Cameroon national football team will be confident for their next outing, but it is not going to be an easy game for them.

The Morocco national football team outplayed Tanzania in their last 16 contest. They fully controlled the game and scored the much-needed goal to get to the AFCON quarterfinals. The Atlas Lions are the hosts, but they will surely receive tough competition from Cameroon. They will be gunning for yet another win.
