Tunisia and Algeria will go head to head this Friday in an exciting North African friendly affair at the Estadio de Rades with kickoff at 22:30.
Tunisia are currently in an impressive form as they have not lost in their last 10 games with only three draws and seven wins including a three-match winning streak. They head into the friendly off a 1-0 win over DR Congo last Friday thanks to a 45th minute strike from Naim Sliti that sealed their third successive triumph as well as their fifth consecutive home win since 2019 for the eagles of Carthage.
Algeria on the other hand have been in a brilliant form as they have not lost in their last 26 matches across all competitions and also have a three-match winning streak. In their last six matches they have only drawn twice winning all the rest with a +11 goal difference.
Daniel Belmadi’s men head into the match off the back of a 1-0 triumph over Mali on Sunday thanks to a second half goal for Riyad Mahrez that sealed their seventh successive home victory and will aim to end their three-match winless run away from home in tomorrow’s clash.
