Mexico vs Ecuador Prediction World Cup Today

Draw (+190)

I'm expecting a low-event, low-scoring game as Mexico hosts Ecuador, leading me to back a draw at +190 odds.

Ecuador have been a very defensive-minded side through three matches, scoring only two total goals but also conceding just twice. Mexico have been more potent going forward, netting six goals, but they've been lights out on D, keeping a clean sheet in all three group matches. All in all, I think both sides will have a tough time generating chances.

While I nearly wrote up under 2.5 goals, that line is listed at -225 odds, so I'd rather roll the dice on the match being a draw through regulation as I think we could get a 0-0 or 1-1 scoreline through 90 minutes.
