The encounter is expected to hold in Algiers during the November-December 2026 FIFA women’s international window, which provides the African champions with an opportunity to assess their readiness ahead of the next phase of the qualifiers.
The 10-time African champions have been without competitive action since October, when they faced Comoros in the second round of the Olympic qualifying series.
Nigeria secured an emphatic 7-0 aggregate victory over Comoros to book their place in the third round, where they are scheduled to meet Morocco’s Atlas Lionesses between February and March 2027.
The two West African rivals will compete for a place in the fourth round of the qualifying tournament, making the proposed friendly against Algeria an important part of Nigeria’s preparations.
The November-December FIFA international window will run from November 24 to December 5, 2026, with national teams worldwide permitted to play up to three matches during the period.
The proposed Algeria fixture is expected to give the Super Falcons valuable match experience as they work towards securing a place at the 2028 Olympic Games.
