As both teams gear up for a decisive qualification match, Algeria and Iraq are set for a showdown where every detail will matter. Madjid Bougherra’s men, impressive against Bahrain, need only a single point to secure a place in the quarter-finals. On the other side, Iraq, already through to the next round, have no scoreboard pressure, which could make this encounter even more unpredictable. In this context, the probable line-ups for both teams offer a clear glimpse into their tactical intentions:

For Algeria, Bougherra is expected to stick with a solid structure:Algeria: Chaal (GK) – Atal, Abada, Bedrane, Baouche – Lekhal, Benzia – Brahimi (C), Bendebka, Boulbina – Berkane.

Meanwhile, Iraq are set to field a cohesive and tough-to-break starting eleven:Iraq: Basil (GK) – Karim, Jabbar, Hashem, Maknzi – Abdulkareem, Nabeel, Ismaeel, Al Saedi – Jawad, Muhsin.
