Official lineups

Morocco: Bounou - Hakimi, Halhal, Riad, Salah-Eddine - Amrabat, El Aynaoui, El Khannouss - Brahim, Saibari, El Kaabi.

Haiti: Placide (c) - Duverne, Adé, Delcroix, Expérience - J. Casimir, Jean Jacques, Bellegarde, R. Providence - Isidor, Joseph.

Lions de l'Atlas need to overcome a two-goal deficit in the group standings to threaten Brazil for top spot. Haiti, making their historic return to the World Cup after 52 years, will be fighting to salvage something from the competition with qualification now impossible. Brazil currently lead the group and their result against Scotland will determine whether they can hold onto first place.

A Morocco victory would allow them to chase top spot depending on Brazil's result. For Haiti, the odds are stacked against them, but a strong performance could provide a moral victory to take home. Both matches kick off simultaneously from Atlanta and Miami.
