Qatar vs Ecuador Prediction & Betting tips
The 2022 World Cup in Qatar will officially begin on Sunday at 16:00. The opening match of this final tournament will be between the organizing team Qatar and the South American team, Ecuador, the two teams being part of group A along with Senegal and the Netherlands. The match will be played at Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor and will be refereed by Daniele Orsato from Italy. The two teams met only once before, in 2018, in a friendly match played in Doha, where Qatar won 4-3, leading at halftime with 2-0.
Qatar:
Qatar received a unique and unexpected chance to host the 2022 World Cup for the first time. However, the organization by Qatar is overshadowed by many accusations of high-level corruption, but also by the fact that this state did not protect its workers who have worked to ensure the necessary infrastructure for this competition. Returning a little to the football team, Qatar cannot issue too many claims at this tournament and even if it had some important victories in friendly matches, many of the footballers perform in the domestic championship, and in this group A it starts with the last chance after the favorites Holland and Ecuador, but also behind those from Senegal, a team that played nice matches in the final tournaments. The last match played by Qatar was the friendly with Albania won 1-0.
Ecuador:
Ecuador was one step away from missing out on this final tournament, having a poor performance in the last four matches of the preliminaries in South America. In the last match of the preliminaries, Ecuador recorded a draw with Argentina, at home, score 1-1. In the last ten games, Ecuador has seven draws, two wins and one defeat. In the last three friendly matches played before the start of the final tournament, Ecuador recorded the same 0-0 result each time in the company of Saudi Arabia, Japan and Iraq. Another interesting thing is the fact that Ecuador did not concede a goal in any of the six friendly games, in which it managed two narrow victories with 1-0 against Cape Verde and Nigeria and recorded another 0-0 draw with Mexico.
