Our analysis of Algeria points to them being the superior side, which is why they have a strong chance to win the match outright. And with the added benefit of needing only a draw at home against Nigeria, their chances of cashing in the 1X Double Chance bet grow even stronger.

Algeria and Nigeria are two attacking sides who have what it takes to make this an entertaining and eventful match.

That's why we highly recommend taking the bet of over 2.5 goals. The bet wins if there are 3 or more goals scored in the match, and if there are 2 goals or fewer, the bet loses.
