The Algeria national team prepares for a friendly match against Niger on Tuesday, October 6, a preparatory stop before resuming its journey in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
This encounter comes after a series of mixed results for the team recently, having lost to Switzerland 2-0 on July 3, drawn with Austria 3-3 in June, and beaten Jordan 2-1 in the same month.
Expected Lineup
The coach is likely to rely on a starting lineup similar to the one used in the match against Burundi on September 29, which included goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and attackers in a 4-2-3-1 formation. The available squad list can be viewed on the team squad page.
The team has scored 5 goals and conceded 7, sitting five points behind group leaders Argentina.
This match is an opportunity for the coach to test some options and solidify his plans ahead of the upcoming official matches.
The match kicks off at a local stadium at 5:00 PM Algeria time.
