Aliou Cisse’s side ended their Africa Cup of Nations qualification campaign atop their group, as did the Fennec Foxes, who went unbeaten.

Senegal almost tied Nigeria, Mali and Algeria as the sides with the most wins in AFCON qualifying, only for a late Rwanda equaliser to leave Cisse’s side on four victories.

The Lions of Teranga went unbeaten in their six matches, claiming four victories and playing out two draws, a feat they share with the side they face on Tuesday.

Senegal are unbeaten since their 3-0 defeat against England at the 2022 World Cup, with the senior team unbeaten in five matches.

Meanwhile, Algeria almost went the entirety of AFCON qualifying unblemished, but a goalless draw with Tanzania on Thursday meant that they ended with 16 points from a possible 18.

Having played out draws in their last two matches across all competitions, the Fennec Foxes seek their first victory in three against Senegal.

Senegal vs. Algeria Head to head

In the 10 previous meetings between these two teams, Senegal have claimed three victories while Algeria have won five, and they have drawn in two. Algeria have scored 11 goals and conceded nine in the process.
