Morocco will host eight national teams later this month as part of a week of international friendlies during the March 2026 FIFA break.
The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) said the sixth edition of the “Morocco, Capital of African Football” tournament will take place from 23 to 31 March in Rabat and Casablanca.
Seven African sides – Libya, Niger, Mauritania, Liberia, Benin, Togo and Guinea – will take part, along with Palestine from Asia.
Each team will play two matches.
Fixtures on 27 March:
- Libya v Niger
- Mauritania v Liberia
- Benin v Palestine
- Togo v Guinea
Fixtures on 31 March:
- Guinea v Benin
- Liberia v Libya

At the same time, Morocco’s national team will play two friendly matches in Europe as part of their build-up to the 2026 World Cup.
Morocco will face Ecuador on 27 March at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid. Four days later, on 31 March, they will play Paraguay at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis in France.
The March matches are aimed at giving the Atlas Lions more experience against teams from outside Africa and helping the coach test his plans before the World Cup.
Morocco have been drawn in Group C with Brazil, Scotland and Haiti at the 2026 tournament, which will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
