Algeria - Group H (Belgium, Russia, Korea)
Apart from a glorious entry into World Cup football in 1982 Spain, Algeria has been pretty ordinary at the world stage rarely making any mark. Impressive display during the qualifiers would instill hope amongst the team with their aim at Brazil would be to survive the group
