Can the Moroccans maintain their impressive form? Or will Spain’s quality shine through? Keep reading to discover what Forebet’s AI algorithm predicts.
Morocco booked their place in the semi-finals with a dominant 4-0 victory over the United States, limiting Team USA to a solitary shot on target.
That triumph followed a 3-0 win against Iraq, meaning the Moroccans have racked up seven goals and two clean sheets in their previous two matches.
Overall, Morocco have won three of their four games at the Olympics, bagging 10 goals (2.5 goals per game) to dominate the scoring stats in France.
Trends also show that Morocco have conceded only three goals at the Games so far, meaning they boast one of the best defensive records in the competition.
Meanwhile, Spain punched their ticket to the last four with a 3-0 victory over Japan, thanks largely to a brace from Barcelona midfielder Fermin Lopez.
Like Morocco, Spain recorded two wins and one defeat during the group stage, failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their opening three matches.
Following a tense 2-1 victory over Uzbekistan, the Spaniards defeated the Dominican Republic 3-1 before suffering a 2-1 defeat against Egypt.
Despite struggling for consistency during the group stage, Spain head into the semi-finals with a spring in their step, having made light work of Japan in the quarter-finals.
Head-to-head: Morocco and Spain have faced each other at two Olympic Games over the years, meeting at Sydney 2000 and London 2012.
The Moroccans remain unbeaten in this fixture at the Olympics, notching a 2-0 victory in Australia before holding the Spaniards to a goalless draw in the UK.
Team news: Morocco’s Soufiane Rahimi is the tournament’s top scorer, having netted five goals in four games, with PSG’s Achraf Hakimi bagging one goal and one assist.
As for Spain, Fermin Lopez has scored three goals in four appearances, while Sergio Gomez and Abel Ruiz have each notched one goal and one assist.
Although Morocco have scored plenty of goals in recent games, the African nation aren’t likely to get many chances against stubborn Spain.

Forebet predicts that Morocco and Spain will play out a goalless draw, meaning extra time and/or penalties will be required to determine the winner.
