Morocco will hold a training camp in the UAE in December in order to prepare for the 2017 African Cup of Nations.

The team has been drawn in the Group C of the tournament alongside defending champion Ivory Coast, DR Congo and Togo.

Iran, who is currently top of Group A in the Asia’s 2018 World Cup qualifying with 11 points, will take on Qatar on March 3 before facing China five days later.

Iran is going to play Ivory Coast in its training camp in the UAE.
