Saudi Arabia - Algeria: Which channels and what time to watch the match?

On Tuesday, November 18, Algeria will play their second and final friendly of the month in Jeddah against Saudi Arabia—a pivotal clash in their preparations for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. After a convincing 3-1 victory over Zimbabwe, Vladimir Petkovic’s men now face an opponent of a completely different caliber. Having qualified for the 2026 World Cup and coming off a prestigious 1-0 win against Ivory Coast last Friday, Hervé Renard’s side approach this fixture brimming with renewed confidence and formidable tactical discipline.

Missing several key players—Luca Zidane, Ramy Bensebaïni, Farès Chaïbi, Hicham Boudaoui, Mohamed Tougaï, and Amine Amoura—Algeria will take on this test with a depleted squad, but one that remains determined.

"The next match against Saudi Arabia will be more difficult," warned Riyad Mahrez,

reminding everyone that this fixture should serve as a benchmark just a month before the CAN kicks off.

Facing a Saudi side that hasn’t lost a home friendly since March 2023, the task ahead looks tricky. Hervé Renard’s squad, who have qualified for three consecutive World Cups, remain renowned for their intensity, discipline, and ability to outwit higher-ranked opponents.
