Bitesize Prediction: Equatorial Guinea vs Algeria – 31/12/25

Competition: AFCON

Market: Algeria win

Odds: 4/5 @ Pribet

Looking to punch their AFCON knockout stage ticket with another statement, Algeria will meet Equatorial Guinea in Rabat on Wednesday afternoon.

Despite making their own respective AFCON return over in Morocco, Equatorial Guinea have drastically failed to find the feet on the biggest of stages. Last seen missing out on what they had billed as a potential opportunity as they slumped to a toothless 1-0 loss against Sudan, the Red Devils sit rock-bottom of the Group E standings and they have failed to put a single point on the board. Getting their festive adventure underway with a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Burkina Faso, Juan Micha’s camp will be more than aware that they face a monumental challenge on Wednesday afternoon. Signing off their pre-tournament preparations with a 2-0 defeat against Madagascar, Equatorial Guinea have also recorded just a sole competitive victory across any competition since way back in March. Showing some extended issues in the final third, it should also be highlighted that the Group E strugglers have recorded just a sole strike in over 300 minutes of action.

Shockingly failing to punch an AFCON ticket for the Ivory Coast two years ago, Algeria found themselves at the heart of what was a real crisis. However, getting their adventure over in Morocco underway with a real flurry, the Greens have come roaring back in a stellar fashion and are regarded as a potential title dark horse over the next few weeks. Storming their way to next summer’s World Cup finals over in North America, Vladimir Petkovic’s side find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Getting their AFCON charge underway with a routine 3-0 romp against Sudan on December 24th, Algeria have won each of their first two Group E showdowns and they will be looking to officially punch their knockout stage ticket by laying down another marker. Along with winning four of their previous five appearances across all competitions, it should also be noted that Petkovic’s men have remarkably not lost any of their last 18 outings within 90 minutes.
