Ecuador vs Uruguay Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Devesh Jaganath in World Cup Predictions
Ecuador and Uruguay will face off in gameweek two of the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers this Tuesday. The hosts are at the bottom of the table after the first round of matches, while the visitors are second. Ecuador were beaten by Argentina 1-0 in their opening match of qualifying. However, while they were notably second-best against the world champions, they did very well in defence and were only breached in the 78th minute by Lionel Messi. That loss also brought an end to a three-match winning run for the hosts. They had beaten Australia, Bolivia, and Costa Rica during that run of victories. Ecuador qualified for the last World Cup by finishing fourth in this competition. They were edged out of a knockout round spot at the World Cup by Senegal in the final match of the group. While they did lose to this opponent the last they met, the hosts are the favourites in this one.
Meanwhile, Uruguay recorded an excellent 3-1 win over Chile last weekend. That places them second in the standings behind Brazil. With that win, the visitors are now on a four-match winning streak and unbeaten in their last six in all competitions. Like their opponents, Uruguay agonizingly missed out on a top-two finish in their group at the World Cup. South Korea beat them to a knockout spot on goals scored. The Charruas finished third in these qualifiers between 2020-22, two points ahead of their opponents here. They also beat Ecuador in their last meeting but did lose to them at this venue 4-2 earlier in qualifying for the last World Cup. While the visitors are the clear outsiders at the books, they are certainly not without a chance in this match.
