Ivory Coast vs Ecuador

Ivory Coast – Ecuador Prediction

Ivory Coast against Ecuador sets the African champions against one of South America's most defensively assured sides — one of the group stage's hardest openers to call.

Ivory Coast carry a threat

The Elephants score freely — a 1-0 win over Scotland, a 4-0 of South Korea, a 2-3 loss to Egypt and a 3-0 over Burkina Faso — around 2.5 scored and 1.25 conceded. Sebastien Haller is only a reserve after a tough club season, but Franck Kessie drives midfield with Amad Diallo and Simon Adingra offering pace.

Ecuador's solid base

Sebastian Beccacece's side defend well — a 4-0 of Guatemala, a 2-1 over Saudi Arabia and 1-1 draws with the Netherlands and Morocco — around 2.0 scored and just 0.75 conceded. Moises Caicedo anchors in front of Willian Pacho, with Enner Valencia leading the line and no absences reported.

Open but disciplined

The teams have never met. The Ivory Coast versus Ecuador prediction reads as an even contest with goals in it, both attacks capable enough to suggest the game won't stay goalless for long.
