Mexicohost Ecuador at Estadio Akron in Guadalajara on Tuesday in a prestigious international friendly, with both sides already qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and fine-tuning their squads ahead of next summer’s tournament.
Mexico come into the match on a tough run, having suffered a 4-0 defeat to Colombia and drawn their last two before that (2-2 vs South Korea, 0-0 vs Japan), highlighting defensive concerns despite improved squad options.
Ecuador arrive in superb form, unbeaten in their last 12 matches and conceding only two goals in that span. Their last result was a 1-1 draw against the USA; they’ve also defeated Argentina and remained undefeated against CONCACAF teams this cycle
