Mexico come into this World Cup match on a bit of a rollercoaster. They have won two of their last five games, including a strong 3-0 victory, but they have also lost three times, showing they can be inconsistent. Ecuador, on the other hand, are in a tougher spot. They have not won any of their last five matches, with three losses and two draws, and they have struggled to score goals in many of those games.

Since these two teams have not played each other recently, there is no recent history to look at. Given that Mexico have shown they can win and Ecuador are really struggling to get results, this match looks to be tilted in Mexico's favor. Mexico should take the win here.
