Ecuador vs Paraguay Predictions
This looks to be an evenly-matched affair with both teams at a similar level. Although Paraguay fared a little better in the Copa America, Ecuador are in a better position in the World Cup qualifiers, and they also have the home advantage. Therefore, we think Ecuador are favourites to take all three points.
