Mauritania and Algeria face each other this Tuesday for the 3rd day of the group stage of CAN 2023 (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
After two draws in two matches, Algeria finds itself in a delicate and unexpected position. The team led by Djamel Belmadi is presented by the bookmakers as one of the top seeds for this African Cup of Nations, four years after its coronation. The Fennecs will have to give a response against Mauritania this Tuesday to punch their ticket for the round of 16.
A match that the Greens approach with the costume of big favorite against the little thumb of the group. Beaten by Angola and Burkina Faso, Mauritania has still not unlocked its points counter. But Belmadi repeats it again and again: “ there are no small teams“. Once again, Riyad Mahrez and his teammates will have to find solutions to make the difference against a low and compact block. For the former Manchester City virtuoso, this match is the ideal opportunity to set the record straight…
The expected compositions
Mauritania: Niasse – Keita, Mohamed El Abd, L. Ba, Abeid – Gassama, Fofana, Mouhsine – Amar, P. Ba, Koita.
Algeria : Mandrea – Attal, Mandi, Bensebaini, Ait-Nouri – Bentaleb – Mahrez, Feghouli, Zerrouki, Belaili – Bounedjah.
