Algeria vs Burkina Faso (ALG vs BRK) Match Preview

ALG vs BRK Match Preview: The African Cup of Nations match between Algeria vs Burkina Faso will be played on Saturday, 20 January 2024 at 07:30 PM IST.

Algeria, the 2019 champions, were held to a 1-1 draw by Angola in their campaign opener as their winless run at the AFCON extended to four games. Baghdad Bounedjah broke the deadlock in the 18th minute, assisted by Youcef Belaïli. Bounedjah almost doubled the lead for his side but his outrageous overhead strike was ruled out after the player was flagged offside.

Angola came back stronger in the second half and their persistence was rewarded in the 68th minute as substitute Mabululu converted from the penalty spot to level the scores.

Burkina Faso left it late against Mauritania in their campaign opener with Bertrand Traoré scoring the match-winner in the sixth minute of added time. They were awarded a penalty following a VAR check and the Aston Villa striker made no mistake in converting from the spot.

ALG vs BRK Dream11 Prediction

1. Burkina Faso looks in good form in recent matches, They are the favorites to win the match
2. The Fennec Foxes are unbeaten in their last 13 games across all competitions but saw their winning streak come to an end after four games in their campaign opener, playing a 1-1 draw. They are winless in their last four games at the AFCON, scoring just twice while conceding five times.
3. Head coach Djamel Belmadi is not expected to make any changes to the starting XI and will hope that star player Riyad Mahrez steps up in this match after a quiet day at the office in the campaign opener.
4. Les Étalons have an impressive record at the AFCON and have reached the semi-finals in their last two appearances in the 2017 and 2021 editions. They have suffered just one loss in their last seven games across all competitions, scoring at least once in six games in that period.
5. Theres nothing much to separate the two teams at the moment and, considering their performance in the campaign opener, a low-scoring draw might ensue. Algeria 1-1 Burkina Faso
