Group B in Africa World Cup qualifying is set to be very exciting, following the first round of matches, which were completed in October.
The group consists of Algeria, Cameroon, Nigeria and Zambia. The latter may not have much in the way of World Cup pedigree but anyone who has enjoyed watching the World Cup finals over the last 20 years, will certainly know Algeria, Cameroon and Nigeria are all good teams and have the potential to make it to Russia.
In the first round of matches, Nigeria travelled to Zambia, in what was a fast paced, exciting game and the Super Eagles came away with maximum points, thanks to a 2-1 win. Both of Nigeria’s goals came in the first half, courtesy of English Premier League duo, Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho. Zambia pulled one back in the second half, thanks to Collins Mbesuma but despite piling on the pressure, could not force an equaliser.
Things did not start so well for Algeria, who were held 1-1 at home by Cameroon. El Arabi Soudani opened the scoring for Algeria but Cameroon’s Benjamin Moukandjo equalised before half-time and that was how the score remained. It was a good point for Cameroon but Algeria now have work to do and cannot afford to lose this game, against Nigeria.

The big news leading into this match, is that Algeria manager, Milovan Rajevac, has quit after just two games in charge. As things stand, Nabil Neghiz is in temporary charge of the team and it is less than ideal preparation, for what must be Algeria’s toughest match of the group, in Nigeria.
Nigeria have a very strong record at the Abuja National Stadium in World Cup qualifying games and have a 21-game unbeaten record, stretching back to 2000. Although they have not played Algeria during this run of games, Nigeria are strong favourites to win the match at 2.35 with Bet9ja.
Algeria have won only 2 of their last 6 away World Cup qualifying games and with a change of manager taking place, they are the outsiders at 2.80. The draw is also available at 3.10.
2. Nigeria vs Algeria Betting Tips
Nigeria boast a very strong home World Cup qualifying record and in 5 of their last 6 games, did not concede a goal, all 5 of which ended in victory. Algeria have done well in terms of scoring goals away from home in past World Cup qualifying campaigns but will find Nigeria a different prospect and difficult to break down. Both teams to score - NO is at 1.83 with bet365.
The 1-0 and 2-0 score line has been a very popular result for Nigeria in past World Cup qualifying home games and given Algeria do have some very talented players, the Super Eagles may have to settle for another narrow home victory. Nigeria to win 1-0 is at 7.50 with bet365.
Whether you think Nigeria can build on their good start to the group or Algeria can bounce back from dropping points at home, you should open a bet365 account to ensure you’re getting the best odds and service from your bookmaker.
