Bolivia vs Ecuador Prediction & Betting tips
The Bolivian national soccer team missed the successful qualification for a World Cup six times in a row. The last time Bolivia was at the 1994 World Cup was a 1-0 defeat in the opening game against reigning world champions Germany. The cards are also not looking too good with regard to a return at the 2022 World Cup. After two defeats, Bolivia holds the red lantern.
Logically speaking, in the run-up to the match between Bolivia and Ecuador, the odds of the bookmakers against the Bolivian national soccer team speak, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows.
After all, after the narrow opening defeat in Argentina (0: 1), Ecuador returned on the second day of the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifying 2022 with a 4: 2 win over Uruguay. The Ecuadorian national soccer team, which has participated in three of the last five World Cups, has once again declared its claim to be back in Qatar in the year after next.
An away win at the bottom of the table is absolutely mandatory. We trust the guests to do this, which is why we recommend tip 2 for Bolivia against Ecuador.
Bolivia :
Ten nations are fighting in the South American football association CONMEBOL for the four coveted World Cup places, with the fifth placed in the intercontinental playoff game mostly having the upper hand in the past.
The Bolivian national soccer team has not been in the top five for 26 years. The last time “La Verde” (in German: the Greens) successfully qualified for the 1994 World Cup.
In general, Bolivia has only taken part in three World Cup finals, which is why the country’s longing to finally appear on the world stage again is enormous.
At the Copa América 2019, too, the gap was enormous again. With three defeats and 2: 9 goals, “La Verde” failed without a sound as the bottom of the group in Group A with Brazil, Venezuela and Peru.
Also at the moment, the World Cup qualification 2022 is anything but rosy for the Bolivian national soccer team, which finished tenth with two defeats and 1: 7 goals and thus has the red lantern.
“La Verde” is going into this third matchday as an outsider, which is ultimately due to the disastrous results. Bolivia have won only one of their last 15 internationals with eleven defeats. A 3-1 win over the football dwarf Haiti in a meaningless friendly game. The last competitive win goes back to September 2017 …
Ecuador :
Besides Venezuela, the Ecuadorian national soccer team is the only one of the ten nations in South America that has never won the Copa America. Only two fourth places are for “La Tri” (from “La Tricolor” for “The Three Colored”) in this competition, which is comparable to a European championship.
Nevertheless, Ecuador was one of the strongest and most constant nations in South America in the current millennium. In three of the last five CONMEBOL qualification rounds for the soccer world championships, “La Tri” reached the top five and bought the ticket for a world championship final.
Now the big goal is to successfully qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, for which the Ecuadorians are currently well positioned. On the first day of the match there was a narrow 1-0 defeat in Argentina. In the 4-2 win against Uruguay on matchday two, a direct competitor in the fight for the World Cup tickets was brought to its knees.
Gustavo Alfaro’s team is currently fifth in the South American qualification mode held as a league system. With an away win at the bottom of Bolivia, a place in the top four would be certain.
Judging by the fact that Ecuador has won four of the last seven internationals and also celebrated a clear 3-0 victory over today’s opponents Bolivia during this period, we think it is very likely that Bolivia will win against Ecuador tip 2. After all, coach Gustavo Alfaro can also fall back on the much more renowned players.
While only one player in Bolivia earns his living in Europe, there are five players in the current squad in Ecuador – including Carlos Gruezo, who plays in the Bundesliga for FC Augsburg.
