Match Preview :
Portugal vs Morocco match is going to be held on 20-th June at Luzhniki Arena (Moscow)
This is first match of world cup 2018 because of that both team have to show us their best skills, combinations, tactics to start group stage successfully.
Portugal did not pick up any injury concerns in their draw against Spain, but Fernando Santos make look to make a tactical switch. Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandes were both substituted during the Spain game, and Adrien Silva and Ricardo Quaresma could come in.
Morocco are likely to name an unchanged side from the one that lost to Iran, in their first game, with Juventus’ Mehdi Benatia skippering them in central defence. Premier League duo Nordin Amrabat and Roman Saiss are both expected to start.
The Favorite Team is Portugal, But Morocco will try to take minimum one point or win the match.
