The north African nations go head to head at Rustenburg’s Royal Bafokeng Stadium.

Neither side has any injury worries for a game Algeria coach Vahid Halilhodzic views as a must-win affair.

Midfielder Wahbi Khazri made the Tunisia squad, despite rumours that he would be dropped over fitness issues.
Young midfielder Sofiane Feghouli, of Valencia, may feature in an inexperienced Algerian side.

The 23-year-old represents the new generation of players in a Desert Foxes team, currently ranked second in Africa.
Veterans such as Faouzi Chaouchi, Nadir Belhadj and Antar Yahia were all left out of the squad in favour of youngsters like former Manchester United trialist Rais Mbolihi and attacking midfielder Foued Kadir of French side Valenciennes.

Tunisia will look to their young creative midfielder Youssef Msakni, 22, who has just moved from Tunis-based club Esperance to Qatari side Lakhouya, to inspire Sami Trabelsi’s team.
