Algeria will secure a knockout stage slot with a win when they face Niger in their final Group C encounter. The North Africans have the edge here, starting this match placed second, while Niger are rock bottom. We have a prediction below.
After their blistering start to the competition, Algeria were expected to have already secured a quarter-final berth by now. They thrashed co-hosts Uganda 3-0 on matchday 1 but have since failed to replicate that performance.
In their last two matches, the Desert Foxes posted identical 1-1 draws with Guinea and South Africa. It almost got bad for the last edition’s finalists, as they needed an 88th-minute strike to draw Guinea last time out.
Niger have already been eliminated and are sure to finish bottom of the group. They can at least try and get a goal in the competition to head out with some honor.
In their opening three matches, they conceded as many goals, scored zero, and only claimed one point. The team just above them, Guinea, has three points more. However, with a worse head-to-head record, Niger can’t finish above Guinea.
Their fifth appearance at the competition ends in disappointment, but a win for Niger in this game could shake up this group’s standings. Semi-finalists in the last edition, Niger have underachieved this time.
