Draw

Ecuador have gone for a strong team that is expected to perform very well in a bid to keep momentum. The South Americans have required a lot of luck to reach the finals directly without having to go through the play-offs. Nigeria might experiment with the lineup as the national team does not have a major competitive action until the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in June.

Total goals under 2.5

The occurrence of low scoring matches has been prevalent for Ecuador and Nigeria in recent games. Both teams have witnessed just one game with more than 2.5 goals in the last five encounters. The offensive lapses of both teams is likely to cost the total goals in this game.

Both teams to score – yes

It has been a tough few months of action for Ecuador, whose last clean sheet was against Chile in November. Nigeria might have been knocked out of the World Cup, but they remain offensively strong to break down a team like Ecuador, who are not defensively confident at this juncture.
