Algeria versus Belgium, another team which deludes itself into believing that they're on the verge of becoming elite. Sure, the influx of immigrant players has made them a much better side like many other European countries, but they're not on the verge of anything. The Algerians are a technically gifted side with serious pace, but have issues with the last ball in and finishing. Both Zidane and Benzema have Algerian roots. I'll be rooting for Algeria but see a 1-1 draw.
