It's not pushing the envelope to back them but Algeria will be rubbing their hands at the prospect of facing Bolivia.

Few would argue against the idea that Algeria have looked like a prodigious outfit on their day. The hosts have notched up 12 wins in their last 17 matches. On a less impressive run, the travelling side has failed to deliver at times. They've lost 19 of their recent 20 matches on the road. All the evidence points to one more loss here.

A robust home team defence might be the key to victory for them. Reassuringly they've kept things tidy recently. This clash is an opportunity for them to keep a clean sheet; the tactics are working. They've only conceded 8 goals in their last 19 games, both home and away. Conversely, the away side looks vulnerable in defence. Away from home Bolivia have conceded three or more goals in 8 of their last 9 assignments.

支持他们并不是在挑战极限，但阿尔及利亚在面对玻利维亚的前景时将会摩拳擦掌。

几乎没有人会反对这样的观点:阿尔及利亚在他们的日子里看起来像一支了不起的球队。东道主在过去的17场比赛中取得了12场胜利。在不那么令人印象深刻的运行中，旅行方有时未能交付。他们在最近的20场客场比赛中输掉了19场。所有证据都指向了又一次损失。

强大的主队防守可能是他们取胜的关键。让人放心的是，他们最近把东西收拾得很整洁。这场冲突是他们保持零失球的机会;这些策略正在发挥作用。他们在过去的19场比赛中只丢了8个球，无论是主场还是客场。相反，客队的防守看起来很脆弱。在客场，玻利维亚队在最近的9场比赛中有8场丢了3个或更多的球。
