Morocco are riding high as the favorites to win the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) on home soil, with a 19.1% chance of lifting the trophy, according to Opta’s supercomputer.
South Africa coach Hugo Broos acknowledges Morocco’s strength, saying, “Morocco is a very good team, and they’re playing at home, but all the rest will be a challenge.”
Morocco’s impressive run includes an 18-match winning streak, and they’ve only conceded four goals in their recent matches.
Their squad boasts talented players like Achraf Hakimi, Amrabat and Yassine Bounou.
Egypt, Senegal, and Algeria follow closely as top contenders, with Egypt aiming to add to their record seven AFCON titles.
