United States coach Bob Bradley believes good discipline and clinical finishing will be key for his side when they face Algeria on Wednesday aiming for a place in the last 16 of the World Cup.
The USA will make at least one change to the side that drew with Slovenia as Robbie Findley is suspended after picking up a second yellow card. Benny Feilhaber could start in midfield, with Clint Dempsey playing in a more attacking role.
Algeria goalkeeper Faouzi Chaouchi has recovered from a knee injury but Rais M'Bolhi could start in goal. Forward Abdelkader Ghezzal is back in contention after serving a one-game ban.
