Halilhodzic urges Morocco to 'calm down' ahead of Guinea Bissau rematch

Morocco will aim to continue their impressive recent winning streak when they take on Guinea-Bissau in their 2022 FIFA World Cup Group I qualifier in Casablanca on Saturday.

Vahid Halilhodzic's side have won their last five matches across all competitions and have made a strong start in Group I, following resounding 2-0 and 5-0 victories over Sudan and Guinea-Bissau in September and October respectively.

A second victory in just three days over Guinea-Bissau would move Morocco five points clear of Saturday's opponents, who have already played one game more in this group stage, at the top.

There are 10 groups during this phase of World Cup qualification in Africa, and the 10 group winners are then drawn into two-legged play-off matches, with the five winners from those ties advancing to Qatar 2022.
