Brazil vs Morocco: Bet builder tips
Over 3.5 goals to be scored in Brazil vs Morocco
To go along with our predicted scoreline of 2-2, the first pick of our Brazil vs Morocco bet builder is for over 3.5 goals to be scored in the match, with attacks coming out on top in a thrilling Group C curtain-raiser.
Brazil haven't failed to score in a game since September 2025, and have found the net at least twice in six of their eight matches in that time, so the threat of their electric frontline is clear to see. It's a similar story for Morocco too, who have drawn a blank in just one of their last 15 matches, and with the Atlas Lions having scored 28 goals in that time, we're anticipating a high-scoring affair in New York.
We've previously highlighted Brahim Diaz as one of our players to watch at the 2026 World Cup, with the Real Madrid man bringing a level of quality to the fore that many nations simply can't match - and we're backing him to impress against Brazil, having at least one shot on target as Morocco look to hurt the Selecao.
While Brazil are known for their attacking flair, their defensive solidity is the biggest question mark surrounding Carlo Ancelotti's side, and Brahim Diaz will be primed to exploit that weakness. The 26-year-old averaged more than one shot per game for Real Madrid in the 2025/26 La Liga season, despite failing to complete a single 90 minutes, and having scored 14 goals in 26 appearances for his country, Diaz is always the danger man.
With that in mind, we're predicting Brahim Diaz to have 1+ shots on target in Morocco's highly anticipated clash against Brazil, with the former Spain international stepping up on the biggest stage.
Bruno Guimaraes to be shown a card
Moving away from the attacking quality on show and stepping into midfield, the next tip for our Brazil vs Morocco bet builder is for Bruno Guimaraes to be shown a card, with the tenacious Brazilian priced at just 7/4 to pick up a booking in Ladbrokes' latest odds.
Known for his combative style, Guimaraes was shown more yellow cards than any other Brazil player throughout their World Cup qualification campaign, averaging 1.6 fouls and two tackles per 90 across his country's 18 matches. Incidentally, seven of his last ten bookings for club and country have also come in matches that his side have either drawn or lost, so if Morocco can frustrate Brazil the way we think they might, then the Premier League star seems a smart pick here.
Therefore, we're tipping Bruno Guimaraes to be shown a card in Brazil's Group C showdown on Saturday night, with the 28-year-old getting on the wrong side of referee Slavko Vincic.
Brazil and Morocco to draw the opening match of Group C
The final tip for our Brazil vs Morocco bet builder is for the captivating clash to end all square, with the Selecao failing to win their opening World Cup match for just the second time in 12 tournaments.
Morocco come into the match as underdogs, but sitting just two places below their historic opponents in the world rankings, the Atlas Lions will certainly back themselves to get a result against Brazil. Having enjoyed a flawless World Cup qualifying campaign before also winning AFCON in 2025, Mohamed Ouahbi's side arrive in fearsome form, and despite Brazil winning both of their warm-up matches, we aren't expecting them to be at their blistering best.
So we're backing a draw, with a memorable Group C game blowing the race for top spot wide open - potentially opening the door for Scotland to pounce ahead of their difficult tests later this month.
