Paraguay vs Ecuador: Ecuador will score three points and qualify for the 2022 World Cup

Ecuador beat Paraguay with a score of 2:0 in their first head-to-head encounter in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. Will Guillermo Schelotto's side be able to get revenge in the upcoming game? Our prediction is that the Blue and Yellow will once again be closer to success!

Paraguay

The Paraguayan national team is failing to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. The Red and Whites started the current campaign well, with not a single defeat in the first five rounds, but their results then fell. They haven't won in seven games in a row, picking up just two points in that stretch. The Paraguayan side is now just bottom of the table, with no chance of qualifying for the 2022 World Cup.

Ecuador

Ecuador is another infrequent participant in the World Cup. The last time they qualified for the global competition was in 2014. The Yellow and Blue now have an excellent chance of breaking their losing streak, as they sit in third place in the standings two rounds before the end of the qualifiers. In five successive fixtures, they have won twice and drawn three times during that stretch.

Expert Betting Tips

Ecuador has just one win left to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. They face Argentina in the final round of qualification, and they are not ready to give up even though they have solved all their problems. However, the upcoming game will see the Paraguayan squad, who have already lost their chances of qualifying to Qatar, suffer five defeats and one draw in their last six encounters. As a result, we suggest betting on Ecuador to win for 2.52.

The Paraguayan and Ecuadorian sides are historically very productive. In their last five head-to-head encounters, the opponents have scored 17 goals against each other (3.40 goals per game average). In the upcoming clash, we can also expect a goal feast, as the Ecuadorians look very good offensively, and the Paraguayans have nothing to lose, they will definitely not qualify for the 2022 World Cup. With that in mind, we suggest betting on a total over 2.5 for 2.50.

Mikael Estrada is Ecuador's main hope of attack. In the current qualifying tournament, the entire national team has scored 25 goals, of which the forward has accounted for 6 goals (24% of the team total). All of this shows his decent form, which may allow him to prove himself again in the national team of his country. In such a situation, we suggest betting on Mikael Estrada's goal for 3.3.
