Algeria vs Zambia Prediction
Vladimir Petkovic has left his role as Algeria boss after leading them to the round of 32 at FIFA World Cup 2026, beaten by Switzerland. The North Africans still boast an impressive squad with new additions being Adil Bourabaa and Mohamed Belloumi.
Zambia, under the management of Moses Sichone, are ranked 90th in the world by FIFA. The 2012 CAF Africa Cup of Nations winners are looking for a third successive AFCON qualification after missing out on the 2017, 2019 and 2021 tournaments.
Zambia will believe they are awkward opponents for the Algerians but the hosts remain firm favourites at Hocine Ait Ahmed Stadium in Tizi Ouzou.
Algeria vs Zambia Tip: Algeria to win & both teams to score
