Algeria Equatorial Guinea betting prediction

The home team had direct access to this group stage, so they will play their first match in this edition of the competition. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in away matches, with 24 goals scored and 10 conceded; against 8 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 14 conceded. They come to this match after a away win against Uganda by (1‑2). Algeria has won 3, tied 4 and lost 1 of the last 8 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 7 of the last 8 have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 6 out of 8 have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 14 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Algeria has a poor track record against Equatorial Guinea, but it's crucial to put that aside. The teams have faced each other only once in the last three years, suggesting that the situation could be different in this encounter. With a focus on delivering a strong performance in the group stage, securing a victory is essential. Capitalizing on any scoring opportunities that arise will give the home team the best chance to overcome this challenge.
