Guinea v Algeria Tips

Algeria has been a scoring powerhouse in the qualification campaign, with 19 goals scored in seven matches. Their defense has been solid, but they have shown some vulnerabilities.

Algeria are top of Group G, and Guinea hold fourth place with ten points, eight points below their visitors. Guinea do have some hope of reaching second position as they are only two points below Uganda and Mozambique. They may have the lead with the first goal, but Algeria can find a way back with a goal and shared points.

Guinea is the only team that beats Algeria in this group, and we can expect them to repeat that performance at home in front of their home fans.

Their most recent meeting which was in August ended in under 2.5 goals. I don't expect anything to change today.

3 of the first 7 matches of Guinea in the group ended over 2.5 goals and they come here after they scored 3 goals in their last match on Friday. 6 of the first 7 matches of Algeria in the group ended over 2.5 goals, including 2 of their first 3 away matches. The first mutual match in the group ended over 2.5 goals.

A BTTS hit between them last time around, and Guinea play at home currently with Guirassy in attack. Algeria have hit BTTS in their last 4/5 games played.

This game might result in Algeria winning both halves as they have a very good record against them, which might continue today.
