Qatar vs Ecuador Preview & Prediction

Qatar will be playing in the first World Cup in their nations history, no small part down to hosting the tournament. Nevertheless, they have made a good name of themselves in the CONCACAF Gold Cup in July, 2021 after being invited. They were eventually knocked out of the tournament by USA in the semi-final.

They love playing on the break and like to score goals, which makes for an intriguing contest against Ecuador, who typically are very stingy at the back. The majority of their squad play in the domestic competition that also features Santi Cazorla, Andre Ayew and Steven N’Zonzi.

Meanwhile, Ecuador could consider themselves lucky to be playing in this edition of the World Cup after being found guilty of falsifying documents and have taken a point deduction for the next World Cup qualifying campaign, which came after Chile filed an appeal against the nation.

They still managed to qualify for the tournament despite losing six of their 18 games in the qualification process. They conceded just 19 goals during that process and have had three successive goalless draws against Saudi Arabia, Japan & Iraq in the lead up to this tournament.

VERDICT:

It does promise to be a tight low-scoring affair to kick off the 2022 World Cup – The under has hit in 12 of Ecuador’s previous 13 matches. (Best Under 2.5 goals odds $1.50 with bet365.)
