Jordan vs Algeria Predictions

Algeria are a quality side, as proven throughout qualification. I am backing them to find their way back to winning ways against Jordan.

Jordan have lost their last 3 matches.
Algeria have won to nil in 3 of their last 5 matches.
Amine Gouiri has scored 4 goals in his last 5 matches for Algeria.

Head to Head

These two drew 2-2 in 2024. That was their only previous encounter.

Jordan Form

If there had been fewer mistakes in their back line, Jordan could have caused far more problems for the favored Austria in their first World Cup appearance, but ultimately had to settle for a 3-1 defeat.

They fired 11 shots in total in this opening match, with four on target, while Ali Olwan scored an equalizer in the 50th minute, but they couldn’t prevent Austria from adding two more goals.

After two consecutive 2-2 draws against Costa Rica and Nigeria in March, Jordan played two more test games ahead of the WC 2026 earlier this month. They recorded back to back defeats against Switzerland 4-1 and Colombia, Odel Al Fakhouri being the sole scorer.

Algeria Form

Besides an early goal of Fares Chaibi which was disallowed by VAR, Algeria haven’t shown anything in their World Cup 2026 opening match against Argentina, suffering a well-deserved 3-0 loss here.

They finished this clash with 0.33-1.26 expected goals and 0-6 shots on target. Coach Vladimir Petkovic started without Riyad Mahrez who was substituted in the 64th minute but failed to spark the offense.

The Fennec Foxes looked great in their June friendlies, earning a 1-0 upset victory against the Netherlands in Rotterdam where Anis Hadj Moussa found the net, then crushed Bolivia 4-0 in the final test in Kansas.

Jordan vs Algeria News & Predicted Lineups

Jordan (3-4-2-1) Mohammad Abualnadi; Musallam Naseeb, Odeh Fakhouri, Ali Olwan; Mohannad Abu Taha, Yazan Al-Arab, Moussa Al Tamari, Yazeed Abu Laila, Ehsan Haddad, Nizar Al-Rashdan; Noor Al Rawabdeh

Ali Olwan is expected to be the biggest attacking threat here, netting 30 goals in 67 appearances for the national team so far. Jordan have no reported injuries ahead of this match.

Algeria (4-3-3) Luca Zidane; Rafik Belghali, Aissa Mandi, Ramy Bensebaini, Rayan Ait Nouri; Houssem Aouar, Nabil Bentaleb, Ibrahim Maza; Amine Gouiri, Riyad Mahrez, Fares Chaibi

I expect Vladimir Petkovic to start with 35-year old veteran Riyad Mahrez this time instead of Anis Hadj Moussa. Rayan Ait Nouri should be way more offensive here than in the opening clash.

Verdict

Jordan v Algeria

Algeria’s results have been fantastic 2026 apart from somewhat expected loss against the reigning champions Argentina earlier this week. I will back them to recover and beat one of debutants Jordan.

Another bet worth considering is Amine Gouiri to score anytime. He found the net four times in his last five games for the national team.
