Japan vs Morocco prediction

In a tough group alongside Portugal, as well as New Caledonia, both Japan and Morocco will believe they can go deep into the 2025 FIFA U17 World Cup in Qatar.

The Japanese qualified for the tournament by reaching the quarter-finals of the 2025 AFC U17 Asian Cup earlier this year, whilst the Moroccans won the recent 2025 CAF U17 Africa Cup of Nations under the management of former Malaga and Morocco international striker Nabil Baha.

These are two strong sides that have an improving and developing squad and it could be quite a good watch for the neutral in which an entertaining clash is to be expected.
