Algeria anticipates new leap in FIFA ranking

The Algeria national team is preparing to achieve a new advance in the FIFA World Ranking after finishing the recent period in 29th place globally following the FIFA World Cup 2026. Their results during the international break in September have given them a boost in the standings.

Algeria achieved a positive result during the recent international break, starting with a victory over Zambia in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, before settling for a draw against Burundi in the second round, and then concluding the break with a win against Niger in the friendly match that brought them together.

These results, which included two victories and a draw, have contributed to increasing Algeria's points in the FIFA ranking, paving the way for an improvement in its global position with the upcoming update of the ranking.

According to current data, the Algerian national team is expected to move up two places in the rankings, rising from 29th to 27th in the world, in a step that reflects the continued improvement of the 'Greens' on the international stage.
