Algeria will be content and satisfied with their form in recent and latest matches. In their last six fixtures, they have managed four victories to go with a draw and a defeat. So far, in this tournament Algeria have recorded only 1-0 victories, indicating something is missing in the final third of the pitch for them. Aymen Mahious’ penalty in the stoppage time ensured that they escaped extra time against Ivory Coast. However, a favourable head to head record over Niger in their recent meetings will give them much needed confidence.
Inconsistencies have marked the recent fixtures of Niger. They have earned and obtained just a couple of victories along with two draws and two defeats in their last six outings. Niger narrowly got the better of Cameroon in group E to advance to the knockout stages. Their 2-0 victory over one of the strongest African nations in Ghana will give them lots of hope and their opponents lots of worries about Niger’s ability and prowess in difficult situations.
With this being just one step before the final match of the competition, both the coaches will be looking to name their respective strongest XIs to ensure qualification to the next round.
