Ecuador and Colombia will lock horns at the Estadio de Liga Deportiva Universitaria in round four of the CONMEBOL 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The hosts are coming on the back of successive wins against Uruguay and Bolivia. Meanwhile, Colombia is unbeaten so far in this campaign with five points from three matches.

Ecuador should have been sitting above their opponents in third position in South America’s qualifying table ahead of Tuesday’s showdown. However, they were awarded a three-point penalty due to an on-field unregistered player. Many other South American nations called for Ecuador to be removed from the recent World Cup in Qatar last year. However, leniency was shown. That issue has very much been buried now, with La Tricolor bouncing back from a defeat against Argentina. With six automatic qualifying spots on offer for the 2026 World Cup Ecuador will feel supremely confident of qualifying for their fifth World Cup.

Likewise, after suffering major disappointments in Qatar, Colombia will be desperate to bounce back and make amends this time around. After a 16-year hiatus, Los Cafeteros reached the knockout stages at both the 2014 and 2018 World Cups. So they are clearly a nation whose absence can be felt given their general ability to make a significant impact at them. Nestor Lorenzo’s side opened the current qualifying campaign with a narrow 1-0 win against Venezuela. Subsequently, they have since remained unbeaten by claiming draws against Chile and Uruguay. Naturally, their prospects of claiming a top-six position look positive. However, one of the problems with Colombia has been its ability to defend itself. The Colombians had struggled against Uruguay earlier and will look to resolve those issues against Ecuador.
