Ahead of Thursday's World Cup meeting between Canada and Morocco, Sports Mole looks at how both squads compare, including their most valuable and top-scoring players.

Canada and Morocco will conclude their respective group-stage campaigns of the 2022 FIFA World Cup with a meeting at the Al-Thumama Stadium on Thursday.

John Herdman's men have already been eliminated from this year's edition of football's biggest tournament and will be looking to bow out in style.

Walid Regragui's men, meanwhile, sit second in Group F heading into the final round of matches where they remain firmly in charge of their destiny.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how the squads of Canada and Morocco weigh up against each other ahead of Thursday's contest.
