Algeria head coach Farid Benstiti says the quarter-final clash against Ghana could go either way, as his side aims to reach the semi-finals for the first time in their history.
The North Africans will take on the Black Queens on Saturday, July 19, at the Stade de Berkane.
Algeria finished as runners-up in Group B, with Nigeria topping the group.
“Football at the quarter-finals is 50/50,” Benstiti said at the pre-match conference.
“It is not a problem for us [winning one game]. We want to be more efficient against Ghana. That is our problem to resolve.
“We hope to continue to play offensively and we will try to be more efficient. I hope that it will be a very great game.”
Algeria have had a jerky run in the continental showpiece, winning once and playing out two goalless stalemates.
Meanwhile, the Queens are also eyeing a semi-final berth for the first time since 2006.
