The Algeria national team plays a friendly match against Niger on Tuesday, October 6. The match will be held at the Stade Hussein Aït Ahmed in Tizi Ouzou, kicking off at 6:00 PM local time.
Coach Ibrahim Hamdani said: "يريد المدرب الجديد إبراهيم حمداني استغلال هذه المواجهة لمنح الفرصة لعدد من المواهب الجديدة". This is part of preparations for two official matches against Togo in November, which are the third and fourth rounds of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

Algeria will first host Togo at the same stadium in Tizi Ouzou, before traveling to play the second leg at the Stade Kégué in Lomé. Hamdani added that the friendly aims to test new players and build team cohesion, especially with Anis Haj Moussa and Adam Zrcan absent due to injury.
The match against Niger presents an opportunity to boost morale following a mixed run of recent results, having lost two of their last five friendly matches.
