Ivory Coast and Algeria play each other in quarterfinal of Africa Cup of Nations.
Algeria have no injury concerns but Ivory Coast will not have services of Eric Baily as he limped out of the win against Cameroon in group stage as Ivory Coast beat Cameroon by 1-0. Yaya Toure is expected to play on the left forward role aside of Max Gradel and just behind Manchester City’s new signing Wilfried Bony.
Algeria will be looking to cause an upset as they aim for a spot in semifinals. They are playing good passing football and could cause some serious damage for somehow physical Ivory Coast. Nabil Bentaleb will be a key player for Algeria in this game.
Probable Starting Lineups:
Ivory Coast:
Formation: 3-4-2-1
Gbohouo: Viera, Kanon, Kolo Toure: Tiene, Serey Die, Chiek Tiote, Serge Aurier: Yaya Toure, Max Gradel: Wilfried Bony
Algeria:
Formation: 4-2-3-1
M’bolhi: Mandi, Carl Medjani, Majid Bougherra, Faouzi Ghoulam: Lacen, Nabil Bentaleb: Sofiane Feghouli, Brahimi, Riyad Mahrez: Silmani
