Defending champions Algeria are in action against Sierra Leone in a Group E match of Afcon at Japoma Stadium in Cameroon.

Algeria are the defending champions and look forward to defending the title and extending their long unbeaten run.

The North African giants beat Senegal 1-0 in the 2019 edition of Afcon held in Egypt to win the title.

Algeria go to Afcon fresh from their Fifa Arab Cup triumph in Saudi Arabia.

It cannot not be a walk over for Algeria though as Sierra Leone are determined to leave their mark in Cameroon.

Sierra Leone have named former England international Steven Caulker in their starting XI.

Starting Line-Ups:

Algeria: Rais M’Bolhi, Aissa Mandi, Riyad Mahrez, Islam Slimani, Haris Belkebla, Sofiane Feghouli, Yacine Brahimi, Mohamed Belali, Abdel Bedrane, Amir Bensebaini, Youcef Atal

Sierra Leone: Mohamed Kamara, Osman Kakay, Kevin Wright, Steven Caulker, John Kamara, Kwame Quee, Kei Kamara, Alhaji Kamara, Mohamed Turay, Umaru Bundu
