Ecuador vs Brazil Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

Ecuador Preview

Ecuador have enjoyed good form in recent international breaks, and haven't lost a game in their seven occasions. They currently sit second in the qualification table, with a two point gap to Brazil.

The South American side have some strong standout players, including Chelsea star Moises Caicedo, who played a big role in taking his side to lifting the UEFA Conference League table.

Ecuador Predicted Lineup: Galindez; Hincapie, Pacho, Ordonez; Estupinan, Vite, Caicedo, Franco; Guagua, Rodriguez; Ramirez.

Brazil Preview

It is needless to say how strong of a side Brazil have, with football running through their blood. Although, they are behind Ecuador in the qualifier table, but a Brazil win can see them overtake their opponents.

Raphinha has stood out in their qualifying games, scoring the majority of the goals, but there is quality across the board, including Manchester United's most recent signing Matheus Cunha.

Brazil Predicted Lineup: Alisson; Wanderson, Beraldo, Marquinhos, Ribeiro; Guimares, Ederson; Raphinha, Cunha, Vinicius Junior; Richarlison.

Betting Tips for Ecuador vs Brazil

When looking at recent games between the two, it is clear that Brazil are strong favourites for this match. Ecuador haven't got the best of Brazil in nine meetings now, and with the strong quality of Brazil, it will be difficult for Ecuador to change their fortunes.

The best tip for this world cup qualifier would be a Brazil win.

Final Prediction

For this match, I sense a Brazil win, as they possess to much quality over the Ecuador side. With the players Brazil have, it could be a match with lots of goals. However, Ecuador could pull of a surprise result, considering their strong form recently, although they haven't came up against opponents as good as Brazil.

As well as this, the last time Ecuador did lose a match was ironically against Brazil, showing that Brazil will always be above Ecuador, meaning therefore I could see Brazil winning 2-0.
