Morocco begin their FIFA Arab Cup 2025 campaign on Tuesday against Comoros at Khalifa International Stadium, seeking a second title after lifting the trophy in 2012. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. local time.
The Atlas Lions qualified directly for the finals based on their world ranking, while Comoros reached the group stage via the preliminary round, edging Yemen on penalties after a 4–4 draw.
Coach Tarek Sektioui traveled to Qatar with a reshuffled squad, calling up Walid Azaro to cover the injury absence of Youssef Mehri and adding RS Berkane attacker Mounir Chouiar. Morocco arrive as African champions and are viewed by regional commentators as one of the tournament’s main contenders.
For Comoros, this marks a first appearance at the Arab Cup. Coach Hamada Jambay is expected to rely on a compact defense and quick transitions led by Faïz Selemani.
BeIN Sports will broadcast the fixture live and free to air across its channels.
