The Algerian side will take on Switzerland overnight from Thursday to Friday, aiming to extend their journey in the world’s most prestigious international tournament.
Having qualified as one of the best third-placed teams in the group stage, the Fennecs punched their ticket thanks to a victory over Jordan (2-1) and a thrilling draw against Austria (3-3).
However, captain Riyad Mahrez and his teammates suffered a defeat in their last outing, losing 3-0 to Argentina and finishing third in their group.
On the other side, Switzerland dominated their group with seven points. The Nati opened their tournament with a draw against Qatar (1-1), then followed up with two convincing wins over Bosnia and Herzegovina (4-1) and Canada (2-1).
This showdown also represents an opportunity for Algeria to end an unfavorable streak against the Swiss. The only two meetings between these sides, both friendlies, ended in Swiss victories: 2-1 in 1983 and 2-0 in 1986.
