Algeria did well in qualifying but they will find things a lot harder at the World Cup proper and will need a minor miracle to progress from the group stage.
Algeria have an outside chance of reaching the knockout phase but in all likelihood they will be going home at the earliest opportunity as their World Cup odds suggest.
Back Algeria's stage of elimination to be the Group Stage
Algeria World Cup Odds look about right, they lack the quality of other sides and they have little to no chance of lifting the World Cup.
Algeria should simply be backed on Betfair to come bottom in their group and the bet should be left to ride. There is a great chance this bet will come in despite Algeria not being as bad as some people will think.
Recommended Bet: Back Algeria to come bottom in their group on Betfair.
Algeria have been well sussed out by Sporting Index and in all probability they have got Algeria's World Cup performance right. The best bet is probably to buy Algeria in the Group Performance Index as they are more likely to over perform than under perform.
