A 3-1 win over Zambia four days ago points to more goals from Algeria in this Africa Cup of Nations qualifying game against Burundi. The Fennecs have scored twice or more in five of their last six matches. So our Burundi vs Algeria match prediction backs them to reach that mark again against the Swallows on Tuesday.
Algeria's win over Zambia continued a pattern of racking up goals against sides outside Europe's or South America's elite. They beat Guatemala 7-0 and Bolivia 4-0 in warm-up friendlies before the World Cup. Their only blanks in 2026 came against Argentina and Switzerland at that tournament, both sides ranked far above Burundi.
The Swallows, by contrast, sit bottom of Group I without a point after losing 1-0 to Togo last time out. They have failed to score in five of their last six matches and have conceded in every one of their last five defeats. The corresponding fixture between these sides in January 2024 also finished emphatically, with Algeria winning 4-0.
That difference in quality, and Burundi's leaking defense, is why we expect the Fennecs to add another two-goal haul on Tuesday.

Our Burundi vs Algeria Prediction
Algeria arrives in fine attacking form against a Burundi side struggling to defend or score. The Fennecs have scored in every game but one since March, blanked only by Argentina and Switzerland at the World Cup.
Burundi, meanwhile, have failed to score in five of their last six matches and shipped goals in each of their last five defeats. Given that gap, and Algeria's 4-0 win the last time these sides met, we expect the Fennecs to reach two goals again. Hence, our Burundi vs Algeria prediction is that Algeria scores 2+ goals.
