The battle between Mexico and Ecuador will reveal which team from Group B advances to the quarterfinals of the Copa America. These two units have the same number of points, but Ecuador has a better goal difference.

Before Betting on Mexico vs. Ecuador

Mexico was more than dominant against Venezuela but wasn’t able to score a goal. Despite having 17 goal attempts and seven shots on target, they lost the game and enormously complicated their position ahead of the final round.

Prior to the tournament, the team had issues in defense, allowing four goals to Uruguay and three against Brazil. It was evident at the time that the Sombreros weren’t that good and that their game had many flaws.

Ecuador is the team that wants to play open and efficient football, which isn’t the case with other teams from South America. Their previous results are the best possible proof of that, as four straight saw both teams netting and over 2.5 goals.

La Tri boasts a dynamic midfield with gifted players who are very effective both ways. There is also considerable talent when it comes to executing, not just in the attack but in general, with several of their players presenting a threat to the opponent’s goal.
