History Favours Nigeria Over Algeria (head To Head) by DifferentBoy1(m): 3:51pm On Nov 09, 2016
Nigeria’s Super Eagles will walk onto the pitch of the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium on Saturday, November 12, 2016 on superior ground against the Fennecs of Algeria.


There have been 17 clashes between both teams (all at competitive level), with Nigeria winning eight times, drawing three and losing six.

Nigeria captain Mikel John Obi was less than three years old the last time Algeria defeated Nigeria, in the final of the 1990 Africa Cup of Nations in Algiers.

Super Eagles’ current goalkeepers’ trainer Aloysius Agu was the Eagles’ goalkeeper and captain that day, March 16,

The first clash between both countries was on January 10, 1973, during the football event of the 2nd All-Africa Games that Nigeria hosted.

The match ended 2-2. Seven years later, the green eagles would thrash the Algerians 3-0 to lift their first Africa Cup title.

In their last four confrontations, the eagles have enjoyed a winning streak against the Algerians, which is more than the three consecutive wins Algeria had over Nigeria between October 1981 and March 1982.

In the qualifying race for Espana ’82, Algeria beat Nigeria 2-0 in Lagos and 2-1 in Constantine, and the Fennecs then came from behind to edge the Eagles 2-1 at the 1982 Africa Cup of Nations in Libya.
