Noussair Mazraoui linked up with the Morocco camp, despite being sidelined for our previous two matches, but did not feature for the Atlas Lions, as they finished their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 100 per cent record.
The 27-year-old defender was excellent in the win over Chelsea but sat out the games against Brentford and Sunderland, with boss Ruben Amorim not expecting him to return until after this break.
Meanwhile, Lisandro Martinez continues to step up his recovery from a knee operation. The Argentina international scored in last term’s 2-2 draw at Liverpool.
Amorim is set to hold his press conference on Friday to preview the game and probably provide an update on the squad situation.
