Ecuador started this competition with a defeat to Venezuela but bounced back to beat Jamaica and get a respectable draw against Mexico to qualify in second place in Group B. They have shown themselves be tough to score against, especially in the first half, but need to take more chances themselves.
By contrast, La Seleccion have been close to perfect. They won all three of their Group A matches without conceding a goal. Lautaro Martínez is the competition’s top scorer, netting four of his side’s five goals so far. Messi has not actually found the net yet. Indeed, he missed the final game over a hamstring issue, although he is expected to take part in this tie.
