Colombia – Ecuador
14.10.2021
A pair of top four contenders meet in Barranquilla on Thursday, as Colombia clash with Ecuador in World Cup qualifying. Following two goalless draws during the current international period, the hosts at Estadio Metropolitano will seek a win that would take them above their visitors in the tightly-packed table.
Despite winning only three matches so far, Colombia remain contenders to claim one of the top four places which assure a ticket to Qatar next year, as they sit fifth in the standings before their final game of this month. The last time these two bordering nations clashed in qualification, Colombia returned home humiliated after a crushing 6-1 defeat.
Our prediction is for a home victory and under 2,5 goals.
