World Cup Group C wraps up on Wednesday evening, as Morocco take on Haiti and Brazil face off against Scotland.

The biggest storyline in this final pair of matches is whether Scotland will be able to qualify for the World Cup knockout stages for the first time in their nation's history.

The stakes may not be quite so high in the evening's other match, but there will be plenty to play for.

Whatever happens on Wednesday night, it will be the end of Haiti's second-ever World Cup campaign, as their defeat to Brazil on Friday night meant they cannot qualify for the knockout campaign.

But the minnows will want to sign off in style and at least score their first goal of the World Cup campaign when the two sides face off at Atlanta Stadium in the match which kicks off at 5pm local time (11pm UK time).

As with several of the final set of group games, permutations are likely to dictate how the two sides approach this game.

Morocco know that in order to top Group C and set up a tie against the Group F runners-up in the last-32 (currently Japan) they must either better Brazil's result against Scotland, or if both teams win, overhaul a goal difference which currently sits at two goals behind the South Americans. Total goals would be the next tiebreaker.

Any win or draw seals a top-two spot, while the Atlas Lions would still finish second with a loss, plus a Brazil victory against Scotland.

Ismael Saibari has netted both of Morocco's goals at the World Cup so far and the PSV Eindhoven man is again likely to be the key player.

Given that Morocco will want to win the group, they will know that goal difference could well come into play, so expect the likes of Brahim Diaz and Bilal El Khannouss will look to dominate and get the supply lines to Saibari flowing.

Morocco dominated Scotland on Friday night, but were unable to convert this superiority into a glut of goals and are again likely to find a resolute low block in Atlanta.

Haiti will be playing for pride and will hope that a front-footed Morocco approach will leave gaps for them to score that elusive goal that has so far escaped them in this summer's tournament.

But even if that is the case, the North Africans should have more than enough to register a comfortable victory.
