Algeria vs Burkina Faso Prediction & Betting Tips (20 January)

This is certainly the most anticipated meeting of this Group D of CAN 2024. This match between Algeria and Burkina Faso will be held this Saturday at 3:00 p.m., at the Stade de la Paix in Bouaké. This 2nd day of the group stage of the African competition is already crucial for Algeria.

The Fennecs were held by Angola when they entered the competition 1-1. Their ambition will be to get their first victory against Burkina Faso. The latter, however, got off to a much better start in Ivory Coast. The Stallions did not shine, but won in the very last minutes against Mauritania 1-0.

Both teams have found the net in just two of the most recent 10 top-flight fixtures involving Algeria, so it is quite rare for this to happen when they take to the field. It has been a virtually identical story as far as Burkina Faso are concerned, as 10 of their previous 12 matches at this level have seen at least one of the two keepers emerge with a clean sheet.
