Côte d'Ivoire vs Ecuador

Current version

ما الذي شكّل هذه القراءة

• Likely controlled rather than reckless: both have transition pace, but group incentives and strong midfield screens point toward phases of caution.
• Côte d'Ivoire have a balanced 4-2-3-1 with Kessié/Fofana protecting the back four and pace around Wahi; Adingra, Amad, Sangaré and Diakité give useful in-game options. Ecuador’s back three plus Caicedo gives control, but the XI still has some role-fit questions in wide areas.
• Home +0.25 at 1.78 is preferable to Ecuador -0.25 at 2.10 because the draw is a major live outcome in a first group game where both start on 0 points and Germany’s big win makes not losing this direct matchup valuable.
