Ecuador have already secured their place in the 2026 World Cup and will play this match without pressure. However, they have been productive - scoring in three of their last four matches. This fact suggests that even without a stake, the team does not play passively and seeks their chance in every match.
Brazil in need of a pointBrazil need at least a draw to guarantee their participation in the World Cup. Although they have been undefeated in their last 11 matches against Ecuador, with 7 wins and 4 draws, their current form raises doubts - they have conceded goals in five of their last six matches. This indicates fluctuations in defense, which could give the hosts a chance.
Prediction: DrawEcuador play freely and have shown that they can find the net. Brazil will approach cautiously to avoid a loss. In such a situation, it seems quite logical for the match to not produce a winner.
