Lesotho's sample also mixes friendlies, the COSAFA Cup and AFCON qualifiers stretched over roughly two years. They've won only a couple of those games, lost the majority and struggled for goals, shipping plenty at the other end too.

Even allowing for the different competitions involved, the gap between the two sides' results is stark.

Comparative Team Statistics: Lesotho vs Morocco

Two qualifiers, two Morocco wins

The two sides met twice during the previous round of Africa Cup of Nations qualification, back in 2024. Morocco won comfortably at home and also came away with the points on the road, so recent head-to-head history is entirely one-sided.

It's worth remembering those games are over a year old now and don't reflect this season's squads directly, but they're the only meetings on record between the pair.

Where they sit in this qualifying section

Among the teams shown here, Morocco sit top having won every one of their six qualifiers so far and conceded just twice. Lesotho are well behind with a single win from six games and have already lost four.

This is only a partial picture rather than a full group table, but it fits with everything else pointing the same way.

How this one could play out

Put the form, the head-to-head record and the standings together and Morocco look like clear favourites, with Lesotho's home advantage unlikely to count for much on its own.

Lesotho have conceded freely across their recent sample, so keeping things tight against a strong Morocco attack is the obvious challenge. The game is still a few days off as of writing, so exact squads aren't confirmed, but the underlying trend heavily favours the visitors.
