Argentina vs Morocco Team Overview

Argentina

This game marks Argentina’s tenth participation in the Olympic Games. Javier Mascherano’s team qualified for the current tournament by taking second place in the CONCACAF, which took place from January 21 to February 11 this year. Argentina confidently passed the preliminary stage, amassing 8 points out of a possible 12.

The current squad under Javier Mascherano boasts some prominent names, most notably 2022 World Cup champions, such as Geronimo Rulli, Nicolas Otamendi and Julián Álvarez

At the last Olympics, Argentina, led by Fernando Batista, underperformed. The team failed to advance from the group stage, finishing third with four points in a group alongside Spain, Egypt and Australia.

Morocco

Morocco qualified for the Olympics by winning the African Cup of Nations among U23 players. The tournament took place a year ago on Moroccan soil, where the home team displayed confidence and dominance, winning four out of five matches and drawing once.

Perhaps the most famous player from the Moroccan national team at the current Olympic tournament is Achraf Hakimi. The other two quotas for over-23 players were allocated to goalkeeper Munir Mlhamedi from Al-Wahda and forward Sofyan Rahimi from Al-Ain. However, both players were not released by their respective clubs.

Morocco have not participated in the Olympic Games since 2012 when they failed to advance from the group stage. The most successful Olympics for Moroccans remains the Munich tournament in 1972, where they managed to reach the second stage.

Argentina vs Morocco Prediction

  • Pick: Argentina to Win
  • Odds: 1.66 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Argentina 2-0 Morocco

Argentina are two-time winners of football tournaments at the Olympics, and they know very well how to achieve success in such competitions. While their recent performances have been more modest, they are now ready to make amends for past failures.

The presence of Julián Álvarez and Nicolas Otamendi will provide a massive boost for the squad. In contrast, the Moroccan national team cannot boast such high-profile names and have never advanced beyond the group stage at the Olympics before.

Given this information, betting on an Argentina victory seems a reasonable choice. Mascherano’s team possesses the quality and experience to take control from the first match and secure a win.

Argentina vs Morocco Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Argentina Over 1.5 Goals
  • Odds: 1.84 (22Bet)

The senior Argentina football team is accustomed to playing more pragmatically, but in the U23 category, they focus more on offence. This is evidenced by their statistics, with 32 goals scored in their last 11 matches, averaging 2.91 goals per game.

At the Olympics in France, Javier Mascherano’s team will aim to showcase their best football from the very first match. Therefore, the best 2024 Summer Olympics prediction seems to be the individual total of the Argentina national team over 1.5 goals, with odds of 1.85. 

Additionally, Morocco lacks a reliable defence. While Hakimi will feature, he will unlikely single-handedly stop the attacks from Argentine forwards.
