Morocco is set to face Paraguay in an international friendly match on April 2, 2026, at Stade Bollaert-Delelis in Lens. This encounter marks a significant step for Morocco as they continue their preparations for the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
The match comes on the heels of Morocco’s last outing, which ended in a 1–1 draw against Ecuador. Coach Ouahbi’s squad is expected to field a strong lineup, including key players such as Bono, Hakimi, and Brahim Díaz. The anticipated kick-off time is 8 PM local time (7 PM GMT).
Paraguay, under the guidance of Coach Gustavo Alfaro, has also called up several established players, including Miguel Almirón and Julio Enciso. Their expected XI features a mix of defensive solidity and attacking prowess, making them a formidable opponent for Morocco.
This friendly will offer another important test as the Atlas Lions continue building toward the 2026 World Cup. Morocco comes into this match with growing confidence after holding one of South America’s most disciplined sides last time out.
Paraguay’s balance between defensive solidity and quick transitions makes them a dangerous opponent. After showing good structure against Ecuador, the big question is whether Ouahbi’s side can now turn control into a victory against a well-organized Paraguay team.
The match will be broadcast live on Arryadia and Al Aoula, allowing fans to follow the action as both teams aim to fine-tune their strategies ahead of the World Cup.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any last-minute changes to the lineups or match conditions, but both teams are expected to bring their best to the pitch.
