Ecuador confirmedlineup

Ecuador has a defensive problem. They allowed Peru to score two goals in Quito (Ecuador’s capital), while the home team could barely score a goal. The Peruvian attack caused serious damage to the defense of Ecuador.

Gustavo Alfaro, Ecuador’s head coach, has to make the any necessary corrections on defense strategy to stop Paraguay. The alternatives are on the roster, he chose the best defenders available to play at home.This will beEcuador’s lineup for this game: Galindez; Torres, Leon, Arreaga; Castillo, Gruezo, Gaibor, Estupiñan; Mena, Valencia, Rojas.

Paraguay confirmed lineup

Paraguay’s secret is to stop the opponent’s attacks and wait for a draw. But that is not always going to work. They know they have to win games, there is a remote possibility that Paraguay wins a spot for Qatar 2022 with only game draws, but that is very unlikely to happen.

Eduardo Berizzo, Paraguay’s head coach, knows that the defensive work has been special. The four draws against Peru, Argentina, Bolivia and Uruguay have shown the excellent form of the teams’ defense. But there is still a long way to go for Qatar 2022.This will beParaguay’s lineup for this game: Silva; Espinola, Alonso, Balbuena, Martinez; Morel; A. Romero, H. Martinez, Sanchez, Arzamendia; Amarilla.
