The States were seething with a sense of injustice after a perfectly good goal was scrubbed out by the Malian referee against Slovenia, although Bob Bradley will also be a) disappointed that his team went 2-0 down and b) delighted with the character shown to draw 2-2. Therefore, they will carry some momentum into this match and Michael Bradley illustrated in the last match that America have a talented midfield department which also includes captain Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey.

Algeria have only scored one goal in their last seven matches and this lack of cutting edge cost them dear against England on Friday. The Desert Foxes didn't have one meaningful strike on goal and manager Rabaah Saadane has little option but to persist with Karim Matmour in attack and hope that the team can create some chances for the Moenchengladbach striker. It should mean that the USA can cope with having a weak defence in this match, having conceded three goals so far.
