Being one of the 3 favourites left in the tournament, Algeria is the only team that so far showed consistency in their game. Earlier in the group games, they have beaten No.1 seed Senegal 1-0 and won against both Tanzania and Guinea with convincing 3-0 victories. As for Ivory Coast, their past few games were just merely scraped through except for the gane against Namibia which they won 4-1 but please take note that Namibia ia a weaker team. Based on recent records, Ivory is the better team but that was some years back when it was glory Drogba days. This Algerian team is different fron the one you saw few years back. Comparing players, Algeria do have more talents on the pitch. With Feghouli and Mahrez manning the midfield, it is going to be a tough time for Ivory's midfield to control unless they have a gameplan to stop these 2 key players.
