What to expect from Algeria in the World Cup 2026?
Although Algeria took a lead against Belgium in their group opener back in 2014, the Red Devils came roaring back, grabbing two late goals and the win. The Green Machine would react positively, though, putting four past South Korea to get their campaign back on track on Brazilian soil. They wrapped up their group schedule with a 1-1 draw with Russia, which proved enough to see them finish second in the standings.
You have to go back to 1982 and Algeria’s debut World Cup campaign for the last and only time they’ve managed to secure a victory in their tournament opener. Amazingly they beat [West] Germany that year. They face another huge test this time around, as they kick off their 2026 schedule against the reigning World Cup kings, Argentina.
An easier task awaits in Santa Clara during the second round of group games. Jordan are making their World Cup debut and are ranked 30+ spots lower than Algeria in the FIFA standings. However, Jordan recorded some impressive performances at the recent FIFA Arab Cup and can’t be dismissed too lightly.
Algeria return to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City for their last group encounter against Austria. Das Team return to the global tournament for the first time since 1998, but you have to go back further and 1982 for the last time they were seen during the knockout stages of the tournament. Algeria will have to beware of Austrian marksman Marko Arnautovic, who was one of the hottest strikers during the UEFA World Cup qualifying phase, bagging 8 goals in total.
