After a clean and flawless victory against Zimbabwe (3-1), Algeria is back with a second friendly match in this November gathering. The Greens challenge Saudi Arabia this Tuesday evening, for a duel between two major nations of the Arab world. Vladimir Petkovic should tinker to put together his starting lineup since the Algeria coach will be deprived of Hicham Boudaoui and Mohamed Amine Amoura, packages after joining the infirmary.
Opposite, Saudi Arabia should offer tougher opposition than Zimbabwe. Well experienced in major international tournaments, the Gulf country will offer a real balance of power on a tactical level, especially since the return to business of Hervé Renard has generated a wave of enthusiasm, three years after a World Cup marked by victory against Argentina. For the Greens, a success would bring this training to a close in the best possible way.
The expected compositions
Saudi Arabia : Al-Qidi – Abdulhamid – Al-Amri, Al-Ahmed – Boushal – Al-Khaibari – Al-Dawsari – Kano, Mandash – Abu Shamat – Al-Brikan
Algeria : Guendouz, Belaïd, Mandi, Chergui, Aït-Nouri, Aouar, Bennacer, Maza, Mahrez, Amoura, Bakrar.
Where to watch the match?
