Group B:

Algeria will be in search of a fourth win in as many matches when they take on Malawi in Blida. Christian Gourcuff’s side registered a 2-0 win over Malawi in Blantyre this past Saturday and are favorites to secure their qualification at home.

Second-placed Mali will also look to edge closer to confirming their place in next year’s showpiece by collecting all three points against Ethiopia in Bamako. The Walia Antelopes have been the whipping points in the group and are yet to collect a single point.

Group standings: Algeria 9, Mali 6, Malawi 3, Ethiopia 0
