Ecuador are set to host Brazil at Estadio Monumental Banco Pichincha in the 15th round of the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers. Here's our match prediction.
Ecuador have been the biggest surprise in the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers. They are in second place and have picked up 23 points from 14 games.
La Tri's success in this competition isn't rocket science. It is mainly centered around a solid defense. They have the best defensive record with five goals conceded.
A goalless draw against basement boys Chile in the 14th round of the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers last time out marked their ninth clean sheet. This result also extended their unbeaten run in this competition to seven games (W4, D3).
Brazil have been on and off on the international stage. If it's not a poor performance, then it's poor results. They are perched in fourth place in the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers standings, which should speak volumes.
Their last match in the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers saw them suffer a disappointing 4-1 defeat against rivals Argentina. In light of this result, head coach Dorival Junior was sacked.
Brazil now comes into this match under new management. Veteran head coach Carlo Ancelotti is at the helm and is expected to guide the team to greener pastures. So far, his men have lost just one of their last six matches.

Our Ecuador vs Brazil Prediction
Ecuador have been a difficult team to beat when playing at home. Last seen suffering a 2-1 defeat against Venezuela in June 2024 in the Copa America, they come into this clash unbeaten in five games.
However, despite their resilience at home and in this competition, there's reason to believe that their unbeaten run could come to an end this Friday. It has been a real struggle for Ecuador in this fixture, they are winless in their last 13 matches. That could see Brazil secure a narrow win on the road. Our Ecuador vs Brazil prediction: Brazil wins the match.
