This Sunday, January 4, Morocco, the host country, will face Tanzania at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Sports Complex in Rabat.

Morocco
Morocco, big favorite of the competition, fulfilled its contract during the group stage by finishing at the top of its group. The Atlas Lions arrive in the eighth with solid confidence and an almost complete squad, with the exception of their captain Romain Saïss, injured at the start of the tournament, and Hamza Igamane, still uncertain.

Tanzania
On the other hand, Tanzania is experiencing a historic moment. Narrowly qualified as one of the best third-place finishers in this 35th competition, the Taifa Stars reached the round of 16 for the first time in their history. Without any pressure, the Tanzanians will approach this match as a prestigious challenge, having regretted no absence.
