The match against , in the ninth round of the South American qualifiers, is of vital importance for the Ecuadorian national team, not only in their pursuit of three points at home and to remain in the World Cup qualification spots, but also because three players face significant risk of suspension.
If any of the aforementioned players receive a yellow card, center-back Félix Torres and midfielders Alan Franco and Kendry Páez will miss the following match (10th round) against Uruguay in Montevideo. This clash is scheduled for Tuesday, October 15, at the Estadio Centenario at 18:30 (Ecuadorian time).
It is clear from these Ecuador vs Paraguay odds that the bookies see the hosts as the expected winners, which isn't that surprising given that they're currently ahead of Paraguay by two points in the WC Qualifiers table, even with a three-point deduction they suffered.
On top of that, Ecuador are the better team on paper, as evidenced by FIFA rankings where they are 27th, while Paraguay are 57th. Finally, they will host this game, so it's clear why they're favoured to win it.
It is not unfair to suggest that these two sides have been the least entertaining across South American qualifying so far, but neither will care too much about that if they make it through.
Remarkably, Paraguay have scored two and conceded three across their eight matches so far, with only one of those games not ending 0-0 or 1-0.
Every Ecuador game so far has been either a draw or settled by a solitary goal, with two 0-0 and four 1-0s too, but the hosts are in excellent shape after eight matches, despite being handed a three-point penalty before the section began.
Without the penalty, Ecuador would be sat on 14 points, just four behind continent leaders Argentina, after narrowly getting over the line with a 1-0 win over Peru last month.
Sebastian Beccacece's side lost in Brazil a few days earlier, but they remain above the Selecao courtesy of the matchday eight results, and it is very tight with just two points separating five nations in the final few qualifying spots.
That loss in Brazil was just their second in qualifying, and the other came away to Argentina, so there is no shame at all at losing away to two of the toughest international teams on the planet, and if they can remain tough to beat, they will be on course to reach a fifth World Cup in seven attempts.
Paraguay took advantage of Brazil's troubles to beat them just a few days after that though, with the 1-0 success bringing them right back into contention to qualify.asdsadsadsad
