Jordan are in decent shape heading into this World Cup match. They have won two of their last five games, drawn one, and lost two. Their most recent result was a defeat, but before that they had a solid run with two wins on the road. Algeria, on the other hand, have only played one recent match and lost it heavily, conceding three goals without scoring. This suggests Jordan are the more settled side right now.

The two teams have never played each other before, so there is no history to go on. Based on recent form, Jordan look stronger and more confident. Algeria are struggling and have not shown any attacking threat lately. This match looks fairly close on paper, but Jordan seem the likelier side to avoid defeat, with a draw also a very possible outcome.
