Match analysis

Zambia are averaging just 0.2 goals a game in this Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign, the lowest scoring rate on the whole slate, and Algeria's attack is favoured to punish it on 25 September. Superior backs Over 1.5 goals at 1.36. The model has it at 73 percent.

Zambia's attack has barely scored all campaign

Zambia have failed to score in four of their last five qualifiers, managing only a single goal across that entire run, which puts almost the whole scoring burden on Algeria's own forward line. Algeria have responded to that kind of gap before, winning 4-0 in their last home qualifier, and their 6.1 attack rating sits above a Zambia defence that has also shipped goals in bunches, including a 0-5 defeat.

Algeria have also gone quiet at home

This bet loses only if the match produces fewer than two goals, and Algeria's own record includes a 0-2 home defeat inside this run, proof their attack does not always turn up. If that flat performance repeats against a Zambia side already set up to defend rather than score, the game can finish 1-0 or stay goalless, and that pairing is the one way this pick fails.
