Tipster’s Angle

Brazil has done exceptionally well against Ecuador as they have a seven-to-one win advantage in the 11 head-to-head matches. Brazil is expected to do well and extend its lead at the top of the table.

Tip: Brazil To Win @ 2.328

In the last ten matches that Ecuador has played across competitions, they have won five, drew three, and lost just two matches. While Brazil has won six and drawn two matches in their last nine matches across competitions. Unlike the current form, the head-to-head has also been edged towards Brazil as they have won seven matches to Ecuador’s one win in the last 11 head-to-head matches. Also, Brazil has won three of the last four head-to-head matches. Brazil has won the last head-to-head match hosted by Ecuador. So, it is very likely that Brazil will come out on top at 2.328 odds available at the Melbet sportsbook.

Tip: Both Teams To Score – No @ 1.72

In the last 11 head-to-head matches, both teams managed to score in just three matches. Also, four of the last five head-to-head matches played recently had both teams not scoring in them. Even the last head-to-head match hosted by Ecuador ended in a 0-3 win for Brazil. In the last ten matches that Ecuador has played, both teams failed to score in eight of those matches. Brazil on the other hand has seen a similar feat in seven of the nine matches that they have played across competitions. So, there is a high chance that Brazil will keep a clean sheet at 1.72 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

Brazil is more likely to qualify for the world cup in Qatar this year as they are six points clear on the top. Ecuador has been the surprise package this season in the qualifiers and is likely to make it to the world cup.
