Algeria aim to build on a 3-0 win over Sudan and given Burkina Faso’s unconvincing performance in a 2-1 win over ten-man Equatorial Guinea, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Desert Warriors faced no difficulties in their 2025 AFCON opener, with former Man City ace Riyad Mahrez once again proving his worth (two goals). Algeria have been scoring 2.10 goals per game of late and we predict that they will stick to their attacking style of play in upcoming Group E fixtures.
Les Etalons, on the other hand, showed character in their opener, with the team scoring two goals in the stoppage time to beat ten-man Equatorial Guinea. Their overall display, though, was anything but excellent and that is the main reason why away win should not be considered. Their expected goals of 2.29 against los Diablos Rojos, though, is surely fueling fans with optimism ahead of the second group game. Odense midfielder Ismahila Ouedraogo should be very cautious after picking up a yellow card against Equatorial Guinea.
As Algeria are more of a team than Burkina Faso, Home Win should be considered, with additional value on BTTS (100% H2H) and Over 2.5 goals (67%).
This Africa Cup of Nations 2025 match will be played on Sunday 28 December 2025 at 17:30.
