Algeria Looks to Maintain Its Unbeaten Start Under Brahim Hemdani
Algeria, managed by Brahim Hemdani, began its qualifying campaign with a 3-1 home victory over Zambia on September 25.
Jaouen Hadjam opened the scoring after just two minutes, while Ibrahim Maza and Anis Hadj Moussa added second-half goals to secure Hemdani's first victory as national team coach.
Four days later, the Desert Foxes recovered from a two-goal deficit to earn a 2-2 draw against Burundi, thanks to goals from Mohamed Belloumi and Adil Boulbina.
For the November international window, Hemdani has selected a squad featuring Amine Gouiri, Mohamed Amine Amoura, Ramy Bensebaïni and Ibrahim Maza.
The coach has also handed first international call-ups to Abderrahmane Rebbach and Mohamed Azzi, while Rayan Aït-Nouri and goalkeeper Luca Zidane are absent.
Togo Seeks Redemption After Defeat Against Zambia
Togo, coached by Patrice Neveu, enters the double-header looking to bounce back after an inconsistent start to its qualifying campaign.
The Sparrowhawks opened with a 1-0 home victory over Burundi on September 25, thanks to a 17th-minute goal from Karim Dermane.
However, four days later, Togo suffered a 2-0 away defeat to Zambia, leaving the team with three points after two matches.
Neveu faces several selection challenges after Sharani Zuberu, Kevin Boma and Steven Nador were ruled out through injury.
Meanwhile, defender Lilian Brassier has received his first international call-up, providing an additional option for Togo's defense.

Can Togo End Algeria's Recent Dominance?
The most recent meetings between these national teams took place during the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers, when Algeria secured two victories.
The Desert Foxes claimed a commanding 5-1 home win on October 10, 2024, before earning a 1-0 away victory four days later, with Ramy Bensebaïni scoring the decisive penalty.
The current Group I qualification race remains closely contested, with Algeria, Zambia and Togo separated by just one point after the opening two rounds.
The top two teams will qualify for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, hosted by Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.
Both teams will meet again on November 17 at the Stade de Kégué in Lomé, making the double-header an important opportunity to strengthen their qualification hopes.
