Another week of soccer international begins this Tuesday, 28. The magic of friendlies lies in the possibility of being able to see teams that would only meet officially at the World Cup face each other, but without waiting for such a long time.
Australia vs Ecuador will be a match not to be missed and a rematch of sorts after their recent encounter last Friday. In that dispute, it was the home team that made the stop, but it is quite possible that Felix Sanchez identified and corrected his team’s mistakes.
Without further ado, at JefeBet we present you our analysis, predictions, odds and other information about the Australia vs Ecuador match.

Betting on Australia
The Australian team will gather on this occasion in front of its people to celebrate its great participation in the 2022 Qatar World Cup. In that competition, the Oceanic side surprised the world with its fierce style of play and the tactical ability of several of its players. The team also reached the round of 16, where it faced Argentina, the defending champion.
Last Friday, in its last match against the same team, Australia delivered a true demonstration that the performance the team had in Qatar is only the beginning of a generation that wants to accomplish important things. The match ended with a final score of 3-1 with goals scored by Jackson Irvine, Awer Mabil and Garang Kuol.
It is expected that in this next Australia vs Ecuador clash, the home team will repeat the feat and give less of the ball to Ecuador to avoid any surprises. Most likely, the team will go into the match with a similar lineup.
Possible lineup (4-1-4-1): Mathew Ryan; Milos Degenek, Harry Souttar, Kye Rowles, Aziz Behich; Aiden O’Neill; Awer Mabil, Keanu Baccus, Jackson Irvine, Craig Goodwin; Mitchell Duke.
Betting on Ecuador
Ecuador arrives to this Australia vs Ecuador game hungry for victory, as this will be its second chance to shine under the lead of Felix Sanchez. The Spanish coach had a difficult debut in the match played against the same opponent.
Although it was evident that Ecuador owned the ball with a possession percentage of 64%, its players were not effective and ended up losing to a home team that took advantage of the opportunities it had from start to finish. With that result, La Tri completes three matches in a row without a win and without scoring more than one goal.
The South American squad is unfortunate not to have in this call-up several players who played a leading role in Qatar 2022 such as Enner Valencia, Gonzalo Plata and Carlos Gruezo. Even so, the new faces will be hoping to cause a surprise on Tuesday in the Australia vs Ecuador match.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Moisés Ramírez; Ángelo Preciado, Félix Torres, Piero Hincapié, Pervis Estupiñán; Jhegson Méndez, Moisés Caicedo, José Cifuentes; Ángel Mena, Michael Estrada, Jeremy Sarmiento.
JefeBet Prediction
Undoubtedly, the home team has the advantage. The great work of coach Graham Arnold, who is also considered one of the best coaches of the last World Cup, is evident in what the team showed on Friday’s match against this same opponent.
The quality of Awer Mabil, a midfielder who will surely be a starter again and will be a big problem for goalkeeper Ramírez, was evident. These are all the reasons why, at JefeBet, we believe that this new Australia vs Ecuador clash will end with an Australian win.
Prediction: Moneyline of Australia (AUS 2-0 ECU).
