Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid will host an intriguing friendly on Friday as Morocco and Ecuador square off in what promises to be a tactical, hard-fought battle. As one goal is likely to separate the two teams this time out, we predict a 1-0 home win. The AFCON champions head into the match in outstanding form, collecting 2.40 points per game across their last ten outings and winning 70% of them. Coach Mohamed Ouahbi cannot count on injured defender Adam Masina, while Sofyan Amrabat will not be risked after a recent recovery. Even so, the Atlas Lions look strong with Brahim Diaz and Ayoub El Kaabi both available. Defensively, Morocco have been exceptional—conceding just 0.30 goals per match and keeping clean sheets in 80% of their recent games.
Ecuador, meanwhile, remain a disciplined and compact side. La Tricolor have lost only one of their last ten matches (1.60 PPG), but their lack of firepower is a concern—scoring just 0.70 goals per match overall and failing to find the net in 50% of their last outings. Key attackers Enner Valencia, Kevin Rodriguez, and Moises Caicedo all made the squad, yet Ecuador’s away form remains shaky, with zero wins from their last six away matches.
Given Morocco's better form and remarkably strong defensive numbers, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Morocco to Win to Nil and Under 2.5 goals (both sides concede less than 0.40 on average).
This match will be played on Friday 27 March 2026 at 20:15.
