Zambia have a tough outing away to Algeria to start off their AFCON 2027 qualification journey. The two sides will face off in Group I, which also has Burundi and Togo. The last time Zambia visited Algeria, they were blanked 5-0, and our prediction backs another comfortable home win.
Algeria had a run to the knockouts at the 2026 World Cup and will be looking to build from the experience. The Fennecs were eliminated in a 2-0 loss to Switzerland, and coming back to familiar territory, they are expected to bounce back.
This will be their 13th meeting with Zambia, and they’ve won six while losing three. In their six home matches against this opponent, they posted four wins.
Zambia managed just one goal when facing Algeria away from home, and that goal delivered their only win on the road in this fixture.
In their latest H2H meeting, Cletus Chama and Patson Daka teamed up to lift Zambia from 2-0 down to draw 3-3. Ahead of this encounter, though, Zambia have been struggling.
In their only international friendly this year, the Chipolopolo lost 5-0 to Argentina. That marked their second straight defeat and third match on the bounce without scoring.
Zambia have actually managed just one goal in their last five games.

Our Algeria vs Zambia Prediction
Zambia have had a tough run in the past few years as the country’s football endures a difficult period. The 2027 AFCON qualification journey is a chance for a return to normalcy, but starting off with Algeria is almost a baptism by fire.
Algeria have done well at home in this fixture, while Zambia have struggled to even score in it. However, on the only occasion Zambia scored away against Algeria, they went on to win. We don’t expect a repeat, so our prediction for Algeria v Zambia is for Algeria to win to nil.
