The Algerian national team needs no introduction and is well-known to fans who follow major international tournaments. Algeria has consistently featured in World Cups and is far from being an underdog, often giving top contenders a tough fight.

Algeria rarely misses out on the Africa Cup of Nations, with the last absence dating back to 2013. Their current performance in the qualifiers underlines their strength, as they top their group after defeating Togo and Burundi in their first two matches. The initial stage of the qualifiers should pose little challenge for Algeria.

Guinea

The Guinean national team is considered one of the best on the African continent. While Guinea is often on the brink of qualifying for the World Cup, they have yet to achieve that feat. In the Africa Cup of Nations, Guinea is a regular participant, always vying for top positions.

In the last three tournaments, Guinea reached the Round of 16 and the quarter-finals. So far in the current qualifying campaign, they have secured 3 points from two matches. They triumphed over Uganda but fell to Botswana, placing them in the third spot in the group.

Head-to-Head

In the last five matches between Algeria and Guinea, the North Africans have come out on top with 3 victories, while Guinea has only won once. Notably, during the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, Algeria defeated Guinea 3-0.

Total Match Prediction

The total number of goals in the match is not expected to exceed 3. Both teams are leaders and are approximately equal in level. Given the high stakes of the match, neither side is likely to take unnecessary risks.

Prediction

Algeria to win. At the moment, Algeria boasts a stronger squad, with key players capable of decisively impacting the game. Guinea lacks such leaders.
