Football prediction Mexico vs Ecuador in group B, Copa America 2024

The defeat in the second match pushed Mexico closer to the risk of being eliminated. They need a win to continue in Copa America 2024.

If they fail to beat Ecuador in this match, it will be the third consecutive time El Tri has stopped in the group stage. Coach Jaime Lozano's team has also lost 6 out of 7 times against CONMEBOL opponents in all competitions.

They are tied on 3 points with Ecuador but behind on goal difference (0 vs 1), so a draw is not enough to secure second place in the group.

That will be to Ecuador's advantage as they are not under too much pressure to win this match. They have won 3 of their previous 4 matches in all competitions and are very confident of getting a good result against Mexico.

Felix Sanchez and his team have not lost their final group stage match in the Copa America since 2011 (4-2 loss to Brazil). With an efficient and systematic style of play, the goal of overcoming Mexico is within reach. Ecuador's opponents also showed clear problems in attack and this weakness will put more pressure on them.

Ecuador will reach the quarter-finals of the continent for the third time in the last four seasons if they do not lose.

Head to head record

Mexico have failed to win or score in their last two meetings with Ecuador. But Mexico have won four of their five Copa America meetings with Ecuador.

Expected lineup

Mexico: Gonzalez; Sanchez, Montes, Vasquez, Arteaga; Romo, Chavez; Antuna, Pineda, Quinones; Gimenez.

Ecuador: Dominguez; Preciado, Torres, Pacho, Hincapie; Franco, Caicedo; Yeboah, Paez, Sarmiento; Valencia.

The match between Mexico and Ecuador takes place at 7:00 a.m. on July 1 (Vietnam time).
