In the last 5 matches, both teams have had 1 game go over 2.5 goals and 4 games under 2.5 goals. The average number of goals in matches for both teams is 2. Zambia scores an average of 0.67 goals and concedes 1.33. Morocco scores 1.8 and concedes only 0.2. In the first halves, Zambia has no games over 1.5 goals, while Morocco has 1 out of 5. In the second halves, both teams have 2 games over 1.5 goals out of 5. The most frequent interval for goals scored by Zambia is 61-75 minutes (57%), while for Morocco it is 76-90 minutes (30%). Zambia most often concedes at the end (76-90, 67%), and Morocco in the interval of 61-75 (100%). Considering Zambia's low scoring and Morocco's strong defense, along with frequent under 2.5 totals, a bet on under 2.5 goals at 1.96 seems most justified. Both teams are not inclined towards an aggressive attacking play, which is also confirmed by their average goal statistics.
The average number of corners for Zambia is 6 per game, and for Morocco, it is 9.8. In the last 5 matches, both teams have had 2 games go over 9.5 corners and 3 under 9.5. When considering the total corners, the closest line is 15.5, but this line is not available in the odds. The nearest total with a pair of outcomes is 9.5, but odds are missing. Statistically, both teams are capable of earning a good number of corners, especially Morocco, which could lead to high activity on the flanks. Overall, it makes sense to consider options for over 9.5 corners, given the average figures for both teams.
