Mauritania
Despite being forced off with a 28th-minute injury in the group opener against Burkina Faso, Aboubakar Kamara was passed fit for a substitute appearance against Angola on Saturday and we expect the former Fulham man to return to the XI.
He should be joined in the Lions of Chinguetti's attack by 25-year-old forward Bouna and Sint-Truidense man Koita, while we expect a midfield trio of Omare Gassama, Guessouma Fofana and 29-year-old Bodda Mouhsine.
At the defensive end of the pitch, Abdou should name an unchanged back four of Ibrahima Keita, Nouh Mohamed El Abd, Lamine Ba and skipper Aly Abeid shielding Guingamp goalkeeper Babacar Niasse between the sticks.
Mauritania possible starting lineup:
Niasse; Keita, El Abd, Ba, Abeid; Gassama, Fofana, Mouhsine; Kamara, Bouna, Koita
Algeria
Bounedjah has single-handedly carried the weight of Algeria's scoring responsibilities at the AFCON and we expect the 32-year-old to spearhead the Desert Warriors' attack once again.
Not only has Bounedjah scored each of Algeria's three goals at the tournament, but the Al-Sadd striker now has 16 goal involvements in his last 15 matches for club and country.
Former Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez has had an uncharacteristically quiet tournament, but with 31 international goals, which ranks him third in the nation's all-time scoring list, the 32-year-old will be one to keep an eye on.
Algeria possible starting lineup:
Mandrea; Atal, Bensebaini, Mandi, Ait-Nouri; Feghouli, Bentaleb, Zerrouki; Belaili, Mahrez, Bounedjah
Prediction: Mauritania 0-2 Algeria
