The quarter-finals roll into Boston with one of the standout ties of the round: holders France against a Morocco side that simply refuses to lose. The Atlas Lions arrive on the back of a ruthless 3-0 dismissal of co-hosts Canada and now stretch their unbeaten run to 34 internationals, while France ground out a 1-0 win over Paraguay thanks to another Kylian Mbappe penalty. Two heavyweight sides, one knockout ticket to the semis, and every reason to expect a tense, tactical evening.

The market makes France clear favourites at 1.63 with 1xBet, but the shape of this tie points away from a shootout. Morocco's organisation and France's cagey knockout football steer us toward the low-scoring markets, and that theme runs through today's lead pick, the safer extra tip and a 3.03 Best Combo. All odds below are from 1xBet.

Top Picks for World Cup Day 29 | July 9

France vs Morocco

Under 2.5 Goals (1.86)

The lead play is the totals market: Under 2.5 Goals at 1.86 with 1xBet. Morocco have been the tournament's most miserly side, unbeaten in 34 and rarely opened up, while France just edged Paraguay 1-0 and are missing the injured Aurelien Tchouameni, which nudges Didier Deschamps toward a more controlled midfield with Manu Kone alongside Rabiot. Knockout quarter-finals between well-drilled sides tend to be settled by fine margins rather than open exchanges. If you want the win-market angle, France Draw No Bet is the sensible route in, but the goals line offers the cleaner value.

🗸 Long Shot: France to win 1-0 (Correct Score) @ 6.50
🗸 Extra Tip: Both Teams to Score - No @ 1.75
