Injury updates
Injuries are the biggest concern of the coaches. Fortunately, in this match, no player will miss the game. All the players of both teams are in great form to serve their national team.

Predictions, Odds, and Livestream
In the group stage, we saw Argentina as a very hungry team. And they’ve shown some spectacular games, indicating that their defense was very well-prepared for the opponent's attacks. They only conceded two goals in 4 matches. About the attack, Messi was everywhere on the pitch to help his team to score goals. Ecuador could not win any game on the group stage, but the draw against Brazil in the last match was surprising. Their defense hasn't worked very well. They have conceded six goals in 4 matches, a great disappointment. Ecuador's coach said that they had worked a lot with defensive tactics during these days, and against Argentina will be another face of this team. No mistakes are allowed in this match because the price is too high. Seeing the latest form, Argentina hasn't lost a game since July 2019 (W10, D8). Meanwhile, Ecuador has failed to win in their last six matches (D3, L3). Odds for this match are:
Argentina to win (1.45)
Draw (4.35)
Ecuador to win (7.50)
Prediction: Argentina to win and over 2.5
