The last two matches between these sides have ended in a draw.
The Egypt national football team is ready to have a face-off against the Algeria national football team in what is going to be an international friendly. Borg El Arab Stadium will witness this entertaining clash.
The Pharaohs are coming in after they were handed a shocking defeat by Uzbekistan. It was an underwhelming effort by them as they were unable to score any goals, but conceded two. For their next outing, the Egypt national football team will be at home and will be looking for a win.
Les Fennecs secured an easy 3-1 win against Zimbabwe in their previous game. It was a good display by them. They will be looking to continue their positive run of form here.

Players to Watch

Even though he failed to perform well in the last fixture for his national football team, Mohamed Salah remains an important part of the squad when it comes to the attacking front. He will be looking to step up his game, as he has not been in his best form this season.
Riyad Mahrez (Algeria)
Riyad Mahrez is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence in the upcoming international friendly. The Al Ahli forward has scored two goals in the last two matches for his club. He will be looking to come up with a similar performance for the Algeria national football team.
