Uganda are considered rank outsiders for the tournament, which kicks off in December, and will look to use tonight’s game to help size up their chances, with the Atlas Lions favourites to lift the trophy.
This is just the fourth time these two nations will have met, wiht Uganda winning the first back in 2011 before 3-1 and 5-2 victories for Morocco in the 2014 and 2021 African Nations Championships.
Morocco have won each of their last 10 matches, but the Cranes have built up a positive run of results despite failing to qualify for next summer’s World Cup.
Uganda are gearing up for their first AFCON appearance since 2019 and prepare to face the 2025 hosts by winning four of their last five matches, and conceding just once along the way.
Morocco remain without Achraf Hakimi, with the star full-back sidelined, with an ankle injury which will likely keep him out until the beginning of AFCON, so Noussair Mazraoui should start. Former West Ham defender Nayef Aguerd has also been ruled out.
Uganda are likely to return Onyango Denis in goal after Denis Kiggundu was handed a debut in the win over Chad last week.
