Algeria is set to write a brand-new chapter in its football history as it faces Guatemala this Friday, March 27, at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genoa. This friendly clash will mark the very first-ever encounter between the two nations, who have never crossed paths before—not in an official match, nor even in a friendly.

As part of their preparations for the 2026 World Cup, Vladimir Petković’s men will approach this duel with full focus, despite a significant gap in FIFA rankings. Kick-off is set for 8:30 p.m., with Riyad Mahrez and his teammates eager above all to lay the foundations for a new era.
