Morocco take on Togo in a Group C clash of the 2017 African Cup of Nations (Afcon) at Stade Oyem, Oyem on Friday, 20 January.

The Atlas Lions started the tournament on a disappointing note following their 1-0 defeat to DR Congo. It was forward Junior Kabananga's second half goal that saw Morocco suffer a defeat in the first match.

Herve Renard is aware that a defeat in the second match against Togo will end the North African nation's chances of progressing to the knockout stages of the Afcon. They need a victory on Friday to improve their chances of making it to the quarter-finals.

Togo, on the other hand, settled for a disappointing draw against Ivory Coast. Claude Le Roy will not be disappointed to take a point against the defending champions, who have several high-profile, quality players in the squad.

They will be looking for their first win of the tournament when they take on Morocco in the Group C clash. A defeat for Togo could dent their chances of sealing a berth in the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations.
