Argentina is one of the most talented teams in the world, but for a long time, they failed to win a major international tournament. In recent years, however, things have started to change. 2021 they won the America's Cup, followed by a 3:0 win over Italy in the Finalissima, and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Lionel Scaloni's men are now preparing for the next America's Cup, but first, they have to qualify for the 2026 World Cup: in six meetings, they have won five times, losing only to Uruguay 2:0, but that has not stopped them from leading the standings.

Ecuador is a team with a much more modest skill and ambition. They have reached the World Cup finals twice in the last decade, but both times, they were eliminated in the group stage. Nor can they boast a good record in the America's Cup, where their best result is a fourth-place finish in 1959 and 1993. Now, they are waiting for the next continental tournament, but first, they have to qualify for the 2026 World Cup. In the six games they played, they won three, drew two, and lost only to Argentina 1:0, which was good enough for fifth place in the standings.

The Argentine national team is in phenomenal form. In the last five years, they have suffered only two defeats, one against Saudi Arabia in the opening match of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the other against Uruguay in the qualifying round for the 2026 World Cup. What is more, Lionel Scaloni's wards have won 11 of their last 12 matches since their triumph in Qatar, reflecting their current state of mind. The Ecuadorians are unlikely to upset this record, and the tricolor side is struggling in the head-to-head stakes, having lost five of their last six meetings. 

Not only has Argentina regularly beaten Ecuador, but they have also been productive in attack. The Blue and Whites scored 15 goals in their last six games, averaging 2.50 per game. Ecuador has been defending well and conceding a few goals lately, but it will be difficult for them to stop such a skillful and experienced attack from Lionel Scaloni's charges.
