USA should be sitting two points better off than they are right now, as the referee in the match against Slovenia, controversially and inexplicably ruled out a third goal for the USA. That would have been the icing on the cake for Bob Bradley’s men, who found themselves trailing 2-0 at half time. A victory for the USA will allow them passage through to the next world cup betting odds round but this will not be easy as their opposition are in a similar if not a little leakier, boat. A draw may get the job done, but it would take an England loss or low-scoring draw to ensure advancement if the Yanks and Desert Foxes play even. The USA vs. Algeria match won't be easy however. Algeria proved against England and Slovenia that they are a high quality club, and offer a stern defensive challenge. 19 of their 23 players play in high level European clubs, so they aren't overmatched. The USA certainly cannot afford to go down early once again, as they have in each of their first two matches.
