Common questions
- When do Algeria and Togo play?
- Two matches, on matchdays 3 and 4, inside the November 9 – November 17, 2026 windows. CAF has published the pairings and the windows but not the dates or kick-off times: those are agreed federation by federation a few weeks before each window. We show them as to be confirmed rather than invent them.
- What is the head-to-head record between Algeria and Togo?
- They have met 4 time(s) in the records we hold. Algeria lead 4–0 with 0 drawn, the last on October 14, 2024. Those meetings came in earlier qualifying campaigns and friendlies, not in this cycle, so they carry no weight in the group table.
- Which side is stronger on paper?
- Algeria is the higher-ranked side, at #29 against #119 — a gap of 90 places on the FIFA list published on July 20, 2026. Over six qualifying matches that gap matters less than it looks: home advantage, travel and squad availability during international windows decide more African qualifiers than ranking does.
- Where can I watch Algeria vs Togo?
- Broadcasters listed for both countries are shown above, each labelled with the edition it is confirmed for. Rights to the 2027 finals are still almost entirely unsold, so a channel marked for the qualifiers or for 2025 tells you nothing about 2027. We label rather than assume.
