Morocco vs Burkina Faso Predictions

Morocco are in fine form and are very difficult to beat at home. Burkina Faso have been goal-shy of late and face a very resolute defence. I am tipping a home win to nil.

Morocco have won 12 of their last 16 matches (4 draws)(all competitions).
Morocco have kept 5 clean sheets in their last 5 matches (all competitions).
Burkina Faso have failed to score in 2 of their last 4 matches (all competitions).
