Venue: San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, San Francisco Bay Area
San Francisco Bay Area Stadium hosts Jordan vs Algeria in Santa Clara, California. The venue is also known as Levi’s Stadium, and Levi’s Stadium lists the event at 8:00 PM PT. The Santa Clara setting gives both teams a large West Coast stage for a match that can shape Group J survival.
The venue should suit a match with quick wide attacks and heavy transition moments. Jordan need to make the pitch compact before releasing Al Taamari. Algeria need cleaner possession than they had against Argentina and more support around Mahrez.
Predicted Lineups
The Jordan vs Algeria lineups remain projected until official team sheets arrive. Jordan are expected in a 4-2-3-1, with Al Taamari as the main outlet and Al Naimat leading the line. Algeria are projected in a 4-2-3-1, with Mahrez, Aouar, Benrahma, and Gouiri carrying the attacking load.
| Team | Probable Shape | Projected XI |
|---|---|---|
| Jordan | 4-2-3-1 | Yazeed Abulaila; Ehsan Haddad; Yazan Al Arab; Abdallah Nasib; Mohammad Abu Hasheesh; Nizar Al Rashdan; Noor Al Rawabdeh; Mousa Al Taamari; Ali Olwan; Mahmoud Al Mardi; Yazan Al Naimat |
| Algeria | 4-2-3-1 | Luca Zidane; Youcef Atal; Aissa Mandi; Ramy Bensebaini; Rayan Ait-Nouri; Ismael Bennacer; Nabil Bentaleb; Riyad Mahrez; Houssem Aouar; Said Benrahma; Amine Gouiri |
These lineups should be treated as tactical projections. Jordan can adjust one forward role if Sellami wants more counterattacking pace. Algeria can change the goalkeeper, right side, or wide-player mix if Petkovic reacts strongly to the Argentina defeat.

Jordan Preview
Jordan enter ranked No. 63 in FIFA’s 11 June 2026 ranking. Their listed recent form is L W D W L, with 7 goals scored and 6 conceded across the current public sample. Jordan lost 3-1 to Austria, yet Ali Olwan gave the debutants a historic World Cup goal.
Jordan can compete if they keep the centre protected and attack before Algeria settle into shape. Al Taamari gives the team a direct release on the right. The danger comes when Jordan lose the ball with too many players ahead of it.
Jordan Current Form and Key Players
Mousa Al Taamari is Jordan’s key player because his direct carries, final-third timing, and counterattack control can change the match quickly. Al Naimat, Olwan, Al Rawabdeh, and Yazan Al Arab give the side its main spine. Jordan need Al Taamari receiving early, Al Rawabdeh protecting the back four, and Olwan attacking the box before Algeria settle.
Algeria Preview
Algeria enter ranked No. 28 in FIFA’s 11 June 2026 ranking. Their listed recent form is L W D W W, with 9 goals scored and 5 conceded across the current public sample. Algeria lost 3-0 to Argentina, so they need control and better final-third execution.
Algeria can take command if Bennacer and Bentaleb move the ball before Jordan’s block settles. Mahrez gives the team patience and delivery from the right, while Gouiri can stretch the centre-backs. Petkovic also has enough bench depth to change the rhythm after halftime.
Algeria Current Form and Key Players
Riyad Mahrez gives Algeria their main ball security, chance creation, and set-piece delivery route. Bennacer, Bentaleb, Aouar, Benrahma, and Gouiri need clean games around him. Algeria need Mahrez between lines, Bennacer and Bentaleb controlling second balls, and Gouiri stretching Jordan’s centre-backs.
