World Cup: Future Bayern star Saibari starts for Morocco against Haiti | OneFootball

FC Bayern-bound Ismael Saibari and Stuttgart’s winger Bilal El Khannouss start for Morocco in their last group stage game against Haiti. The Atlas Lions will only need a point to automatically qualify for the Round of 32.

Saibari scored both of Morocco’s goals so far as his delightful lob against five-time winners Brazil followed by a quickfire wonder strike in the win over Scotland. Haiti are already knocked out, but they will hope to exit with their first World Cup point.

El Khannouss is also handed his third start, despite Mohamed Ouahbi making changes in all departments after similar lineups in the first two games. Ayoub El Kabbi's inclusion will probably mean Saibari would play as an attacking midfielder. Eintracht Frankfurt's Ayoube Amaimouni starts on the bench for the 2022 semi-finalists.
