Summary
Algeria and Burkina Faso face off at the Stade Prince Moulay Hassan on December 28 in a Group E fixture at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025, with both sides aiming for qualification for the Round of 16. Both sides opened their AFCON 2025 campaign with victories, and another win will confirm a place in the knockouts.
Algeria thumped Sudan 3-0 in their campaign opener to move to the top of Group E on goal difference. Riyad Mahrez wasted little time making his mark, scoring inside the opening two minutes to seize early control before adding his second goal after the break.
The Desert Warriors’ performance was rounded off by a late strike from Ibrahim Maza, wrapping up a dominant display from Vladimir Petkovic’s side.
For the two-time African champions, who last lifted the trophy in 2019, this year offers a chance at redemption after suffering back-to-back group-stage eliminations in the previous two editions.
Burkina Faso arrive in confident mood following one of the most dramatic results of the opening round. The Stallions dominated Equatorial Guinea and enjoyed a numerical advantage from the 50th minute, yet appeared on course for frustration after conceding late.
However, stoppage time delivered a remarkable turnaround. Georgi Minoungou struck an equaliser in the 95th minute, before Edmond Tapsoba completed the comeback just three minutes later to seal a stunning 2-1 victory for Brama Traore’s side.
Algeria vs Burkina Faso: Head-to-Head Records
Sunday’s fixture marks the fourth AFCON meeting between Algeria and Burkina Faso. Algeria claimed victory in 1996, Burkina Faso responded two years later in 1998, while their most recent AFCON clash in 2023 ended in a dramatic 2-2 draw, featuring late Algerian heroics.
In the 19 overall meetings between the two sides, both have won six matches each, with seven games ending as draws. Notably, the last three meetings across all competitions have all ended level, showing just how little separates the two sides.
