Ecuador vs Morocco prediction

Ecuador are a very strong side and very difficult to beat. The South Americans defeated New Zealand by two goals to nil in the November international break, extending their unbeaten run of form to 15 matches since losing to Brazil in September 2024.

They now face a Morocco side that have been handed the CAF Africa Cup of Nations trophy by default after an investigation by CAF led to their final defeat to Senegal being overturned to a 3-0 win in favour of the Atlas Lions after Senegal walked off the pitch.

In those 15 matches, Ecuador have kept 12 clean sheets and a low-scoring encounter is to be expected for this one at the Metropolitano in Madrid.

Ecuador vs Morocco tip: Under 2.5 goals
