LiontipsColombia vs Ecuador. Prediction and bets on the World Cup qualifying match
Command Analysis
Current form
Colombia is a home team. This is confirmed by the fact that the team has not lost on its home field for 15 matches in a row. In the last two matches in front of local fans, Nestor Lorenzo protégés beat Argentina (2:1) and Chile (4:0). The upcoming opponent does not play away matches very well, so it is quite logical that bookmakers believe in another success for the home team, making them the clear favorites.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mosqueira, Sinisterra and Lerma are injured and will not appear on the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Colombia have scored in eight of their last ten matches
- The Colombians have kept three clean sheets in their last four home games
Tentative line-up: Vargas - Muñoz, Sanchez, Lucumi, Mojica - Uribe, Rios - D. Arias, Quintero, Diaz - Cordoba.
Current form
After a narrow defeat to Brazil (0:1) in early autumn, Ecuador began a four-match unbeaten streak, with victories over Peru (1:0) and Bolivia (4:0), as well as two goalless draws with Ecuador and Paraguay.
Based on the results of 11 rounds of World Cup qualification played, the Ecuadorians occupy fifth place in the standings, having 16 points. They are only four points ahead of Venezuela, which is not among the teams that directly qualify for the World Cup, so there is no time to relax.
Disqualifications and injuries
Preciado is injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Ecuador have not lost in five matches in a row
- The visitors have kept a clean sheet in their last four matches.
Estimated line-up: Galindez - Ordonez, Pacho, Incapie, Estupian - Minda, Franco, Caicedo, Yeboah, Plata - Valencia.

1.55Tip and bets
Colombia constantly imposes its style of play in front of local fans, and many opponents can do nothing about it. Considering that away games are not Ecuador strong point (they have failed to win five away matches), we are inclined to believe that the upcoming match will not be an exception and the winning streak of Lorenzo team will continue.
Our prediction is a victory for Colombia with odds of 1.62
Bet on total
Colombia sweeps away everyone in their path at home. Considering the level of play of their opponents away from home, as well as the risk of relegation in the standings if they lose points, the home team will not retreat from their dominant style and will be able to improve the statistics, in which only they differ in front of local fans.
In three of the last four matches, the opponents couldn't even score against the Colombians on their home field, and Ecuador didn't score away in four of the last five matches. We're betting that the "coffee makers" will keep their goal intact again.
Bet - at least one will not score. This bet is offered for 1.52
Bet on corners
In the last three head-to-head matches, the opponents have taken no more than eight corners between them. We believe this trend will not be interrupted.
Bet - total under 8.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.67
