Back in the hat after missing out on Russia 2018, Ecuador will make their fourth World Cup finals appearance when they arrive in Qatar later this year.
They have only once got past the group stage, when they were handed a last-16 loss by England and David Beckham, but they'll harbour hopes of a surprise deep run this time around.
Predicted Ecuador starting XI: Galindez; Preciado, Torres, Hincapie, Estupinan; Gruezo, Mendez; Castillo, Mena, Rojas; Valencia.
| Position | Argentina roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Armani, Musso, Rulli |
| Defenders | Otamendi, Tagliafico, Pezzella, Molina, Montiel, Foyth, Quarta, F. Carboni |
| Midfielders | Di Maria, Paredes, De Paul, Rodriguez, Gonzalez, Palacios, Ocampos, Lanzini, Mac Allister, V. Carboni, Garnacho, Romero, Soule |
| Forwards | Messi, A. Correa, J. Correa, Alvarez, Boye, Geralnik, Paz |
A comfortable victory over Venezuela last time out continues to ease Argentina through the gears as they aim to become the first South American side to win the World Cup in two decades.
It remains the major miss in Lionel Messi's career, and with Angel Di Maria confirming he will step away from the national set-up at the end of the year, they'll have plenty of motivation to finally go the distance, as one of the favourites.
Predicted Argentina starting XI: Armani; Molina, Pezzella, Otamendi, Tagliafico; De Paul, Paredes; Gonzalez, Di Maria, A Correa; Messi.
