Algeria and South Africa square off at the Stade Nelson Mandela on Tuesday in their final warm-up match before going back to the World Cup qualifiers.

The two countries have not seen each other since the Desert Warriors easily defeated them 3-1 in the Africa Cup of Nations group stages in January 2015.

Algeria's stunning 3-2 triumph over Bolivia, a South American team, on Friday at the Stade Nelson Mandela was the result of an offensive masterclass.

Carmelo Algaranaz and Jose Sagredo scored to put Bolivia ahead after they had fallen down to a goal from Amine Gouiri in the 43rd minute. However, Yassine Benzia equalized the score in the 79th minute, and Villarreal player Aissa Mandi completed the comeback in the 94th minute.

This came following Algeria's dismal performance at the Africa Cup of Nations earlier in the year, when they were eliminated from the group stage after winning only two of their three games in Group D.

The Desert Warriors' miserable campaign in Ivory Coast was a recurrence of their humiliating collapse in their championship defense in 2021, when they were eliminated in the group stages after winning just one point from three games.

In order to build momentum for their upcoming return to the World Cup qualifiers, where they have dominated Group G, Vladimir Petkovic's team will aim to continue where they left off against Bolivia in Tuesday's match.

On November 16, Algeria defeated Somalia 3-1 to begin their quest for a spot in the 2026 World Cup. Three days later, Fares Chaibi and Ramiz Zerroouki gave Algeria a 2-0 victory over Mozambique.

Conversely, South Africa had a fantastic performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, taking home third place, which is their best result in the continental competition since they had won the bronze medal in 2000.

Four days after finishing as runners-up in Group E, on January 30, Bafana Bafana defeated Morocco 2-0 in the round-of-16 thanks to goals from Evidence Makgopa and Teboho Mokoena. Four days later, they defeated Cape Verde on penalties in the quarterfinals.

a loss to the dominant West African team via penalty shootout Three days before they defeated Congo DR in the third-place playoff, Nigeria ended South Africa's hopes of making their first AFCON final appearance since 1998 on February 7.

Prior to going back to the World Cup qualifications, Hugo Broos's team, ranked 58th in the most recent FIFA World Rankings, will be playing Tuesday after drawing 1-1 with Andorra in the first of their two friendly.

With three points from their first two games, the 1996 African champions have had a respectable start to their World Cup qualifying campaign. They are now in second position in Group C, one point behind Rwanda.

While South Africa hopes to go back to winning ways on Tuesday, they will need to prove themselves against a team that has won their past three games, winning one and drawing the other two since a 2-1 setback in January 1996.
