What was a rumor is now official — Tunisia and Algeria will face off in a friendly match as part of their preparations for the 2015 African Cup of Nations.
The Tunisian Football Federation (FTF) confirmed in a statement that an agreement has been reached with the Algerian Football Federation to organize the match, which is scheduled for January 10 or 11, 2015.
While the exact venue is yet to be finalized, the match will take place in Tunisia, most likely in either Tunis or Monastir.
This high-profile North African clash will serve as a key test for both sides ahead of the AFCON tournament in Equatorial Guinea, which kicks off on January 17, 2015.
