Preview: Uruguay Vs Ecuador

Only three points separate the two sides on the qualification table:

The problems for Marcelo Bielsa continue as his team are winless in their last four matches. Uruguay were one of the favourites to win the 2024 Copa America. But ever since their exit from the tournament at the hands of Colombia, they have looked like a shell of their former self. It seems like Bielsa has completely lost the trust of the players.

La Celeste’s all-time leading goalscorer, Luis Suarez retired from the national team recently and criticized Bielsa’s leadership during the summer tournament. After the controversy, Bielsa himself admitted that Suarez’s comments did affect his authority as the manager and it seems he was right.

Ecuador on the other hand are fifth in the qualification table just one point behind the mighty Brazil. In their nine games so far, La Tri have registered four wins, three draws, and two losses. Under the leadership of Sebastián Beccacece, Ecuador are building a very exciting project with many talented youngsters. We saw a glimpse of their potential in the Copa America as they took world champions Argentina to penalties in the quarterfinals.

About FIFA World Cup Qualifiers - CONMEBOL:

History

The South American section of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification will act as qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup to be held in Canada, the United States, and Mexico for national teams who are members of CONMEBOL. A total of 6 direct slots in the final tournament and 1 inter-confederation play-off slot are available for CONMEBOL teams.

CONMEBOL is the first confederation to begin its qualification process for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with Paraguay-Peru being the first match of the global qualification process.

On 22 August 2022, CONMEBOL sent a request to FIFA asking to keep the current qualification format that has been used since the 1998 World Cup qualification in South America. This was confirmed, with the first games of the qualifiers tentatively to be played in March or June 2023.

On 27 February 2023, CONMEBOL president Alejandro Domínguez announced that the qualifiers would start in September 2023, which was ratified by the CONMEBOL Council in the run-up to the 73rd FIFA Congress held on 16 March in Kigali, Rwanda.

The qualification structure remains the same as in previous editions, despite the increase of slots available to CONMEBOL teams, wherein each team plays each other team twice in a home-and-away round-robin format.

Prior to the commencement of the qualification competition, Ecuador were deducted 3 points for the use of a document containing false information for Byron Castillo in the previous World Cup qualification cycle.
