Copa America 2021 is just getting started, and it will bring us soon another must-watch game. Venezuela and Ecuador will face off to keep their continental aspirations alive after a difficult start to their campaigns. Here, we’ll take a look at the confirmedlineups for this game.

La Vinotinto head to the third round after grabbing their first point in the tournament. Wuilker Faríñez‘s outstanding performance allowed José Peseiro‘s team to hold Colombia in what ended as a goalless affair, mainly due to the Lens‘ goalkeeper job.

On the other hand, La Tricolor will try to bounce back after being beaten by Los Cafeteros on the Copa America 2021 opening day. Gustavo Alfaro‘s team had a bye week on Matchday 2, and it will try to make the best of that rest for the remaining group matches.
