Egypt have progressively gotten better in the tournament while Morocco have been one of the best teams so far.The Pharaohs might be slight favorites, but Morocco have been the more consistent side throughout the tournament. We are backing the Atlas Lions to scale though with a narrow victory.Prediction: Egypt 0-1 Morocco
