They will go into Saturday's game on a high, though, after achieving one of the greatest results in club history.
Copa Libertadores finalists Santos were downed 2-0 away from home in the opening group stage match of the 2021 competition, with Carlos Garces' strike and a Para own goal sealing a famous night for the Ecuadorians in Vila Belmiro.
Barcelona then made it two from two in the Copa by thrashing The Strongest in Guayaquil, leaving them top of Group C.
Emelec did not make the Libertadores in 2021, but also top their Sudamericana group with two wins from two.
They have also been in fine form domestically going into this Clasico del Astillero, winning three of their last four Serie A games to overtake Barcelona at the top.
