The round of 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations 2023 continues with another intriguing matchup between Morocco and South Africa. One of the favorites to win the tournament will need to overcome a troublesome opponent to avoid another upset.

Morocco easily made it through Group F, but South Africa's presence in the knockout stages is all the more remarkable given that they were in the same group as Tunisia.

Despite their heroics in Qatar, the Atlas Lions have not won the AFCON in nearly 50 years. Their opponents are sweating the fitness of Chryso Mudau.

Morocco is the highest ranked team in the AFCON and will be hoping for a breakthrough. However, surprises have been happening in this tournament. Can South Africa surprise again today? The winner will face either Mauritania or a weaker Cape Verdean side for a place in the last four.

The lineup is as follows:

Morocco: Bounou, Hakimi, Saïs (c), Aguerd, Mazraoui, Amara, Amrabat, Unahi, Ezarzouri, Enneziri, Adli

South Africa: Williams (c), Moudou, Kekana, Mbala, Modiba, Mokoena, Sitor, Morena, Zwane, Tau, Makgopa
