Algeria’s quality in the final third shouldn’t be discounted here, with the likes of Mohamed Amoura, Amine Gouiri and, of course, the experienced veteran Riyad Mahrez. They have enough firepower to cause problems going forward, and contribute to the scorecard.
However, keeping this Argentina side at bay will be their biggest challenge. With 31 goals scored across their 18 qualifying matches, no South American side was anywhere near as efficient as Argentina in the final third.
Over 2.5 goals landed in five out of seven matches in their 2022 World Cup run, which shows how their games tend to be quite open and high-scoring, and that should be the case again here.
