Prediction: 3-0
Bolivia
Ecuador will be aiming to retain fifth place in the standings when they welcome Bolivia to Estadio Monumental Banco Pichincha. La Tri have been impressive at the back of late, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive clean sheet in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. On the other hand, they are surely capable of finding the net against Bolivia, who are not regarded as good travellers. The good news for the hosts is that Angel Mena is back to the squad.
Talented midfielder Kendry Paez should be recalled to the starting XI. La Verde, on the other hand, are enjoying a successful World Cup qualifying campaign, with the team sitting in seventh place in the standings. Bolivia, though, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 6-0 loss to Argentina and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Ecuador’s party in Quito. Speaking of the away team, both Morales and Lopez should be recalled to the starting eleven.
Highlighted Team (Ecuador):
Ecuador had endured difficult times in footballing terms having been considered to be one of the more struggling football nations in South America, but the Tri have managed to transform themselves into a team that can never be taken lightly at the international scene.
Ecuador has taken part in three of the 22 World Cups with 12 position they achieved in 2006 in Germany being their best result so far. La Tricolor head into Copa America Centenario tied at the top of CONMEBOL’s World Cup qualifying table and their chances of making it through from group B have been increased with good results and alike performances.
Ivan Hurtado played for El Tri since 1992 to 2014 and former centre-back remains the most capped international with 168 games to his name. Ecuador captain Walter Ayovi is the active player with most games in the national team, while Felipe Caicedo with 19 goals is the top scorer of Gustavo Quinteros’ side.
