Ecuador-Colombia is a match valid for the South American qualifying round of the upcoming World Cup: predictions and probable formations

Five points after three days and momentary third place in the standings for Colombia, which obviously should not have who knows what particular problems in taking a qualification to the next World Cup. The visiting team, however, after a strong start, is now committed to the difficult field of Ecuador. Coming out unscathed would send an important signal.

Three points in as many outings instead for the hosts, the result of one defeat and two wins. Ecuador has already served its three penalty points and dreams of overtaking. Difficult, no doubt, against a Colombia that has in its roster elements of absolute value that can make the difference. Let’s face it, though: at the end of these qualifiers for the upcoming 2026 World Cup, both teams should be able to pull off the qualification pass. And nothing but little comes from this match, which is valid only for the fourth day. And since, as mentioned, two strong formations are facing each other, led in a very important way on the bench, let’s say that this challenge can really end in a draw. With both of them scoring, of course.

The prediction

A tie that could make everyone happy. A draw that would certainly be greeted with more satisfaction by Colombia but would also put a smile on Ecuador’s face as they would place what would be their third straight useful result. Race of at least one goal per team that really seems to be well headed this way.

Ecuador-Colombia likely lineups

  • ECUADOR (4-5-1): Ramirez; Torres, Pacho, Hincapie, Chavez; Ortiz, M. Caicedo; Paez, Cifuentes, Valencia; K. Rodriguez.
