Algeria will take on DR Congo this Tuesday, January 6, 2025, at 16:00 GMT in the round of 16 of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Fennecs have already secured top spot in Group E after two wins over Sudan and Burkina Faso, regardless of their final group stage result against Equatorial Guinea this Wednesday.

On the other side, DR Congo clinched second place in Group D with a commanding 3-0 victory over Uganda. However, the upcoming clash will be a tough test for the Leopards, who have never beaten the Fennecs in their history.

The record stands at two wins for Algeria and four draws. The most recent victory came on June 9, 2022, in a friendly match.
