There is no pressure on Argentina at the moment. Thanks to an almost historic qualifying campaign in terms of points earned, La Albiceleste travels to Ecuador with a sense of accomplishment. The world champions will be in the United States to defend their title. However, they will need to be serious on Tuesday night, as La Tri will be keen to give their fans a win in their final qualifying match. Finishing in style in the top four by beating Argentina is the goal for Sebastian Beccacece's team. However, after four consecutive draws with the same score (0-0), it is difficult to be optimistic for La Banana Mecánica. The time is right to get back on the scoresheet, but does the yellow and blue team have what it takes? We'll find out after 90 minutes.
It is highly likely that Lionel Messi will not play in this match. After bidding farewell to the Argentine people in his last game in Argentina and a 3-0 victory over Venezuela (with two goals from La Pulga), the blue and whites want to finish the South American qualifiers in style. Reaching the 40-point mark in 18 games would be historic, or almost so. Unbeaten in seven games, with five clean sheets during that period, Lionel Scaloni's men go into this match with high confidence. With a better squad on paper, expect to see the Argentines conquer.

Our Ecuador vs Argentina Prediction
Argentina has dominated recent encounters, while also showing some solidity away from home since the March gathering. This means that La Albiceleste is ready to take on a team that has strayed from the path to victory.
With four consecutive 0-0 draws, Ecuador has not done itself any favors ahead of kickoff. The match may swing in Argentina's favor as the minutes tick by.
Our prediction for Ecuador vs. Argentina: Argentina will score the first goal!
