Ecuador vs. Germany: Betting Odds
Group E has already thrown up one or two surprises. Ecuador, who are expected to challenge Germany for first place, have only picked up one point in their opening games. Next up is a clash with the group favorites and one of the strongest teams in the tournament. Germany, on the other hand, have taken first place in this section after just two matches. Curaçao still have a slim chance of progressing despite a heavy defeat to the Germans early in the tournament, while Ivory Coast could finish last despite three points. Both games are important. The Africans have the best chance of finishing second, but nothing is decided. Curaçao are still capable of causing problems.
Against Ecuador, the market sees only one winner: Julian Nagelsmann's team. Germany are 1.85 to win, 4.00 to draw and 3.75 to Ecuador.
Ecuador
Ecuador has been one of the biggest disappointments of the tournament so far. They deservedly lost to Ivory Coast, conceding in injury time after creating little. Against Curacao, a team that had scored seven goals against Germany, they managed only a 0-0 draw despite plenty of chances. The numbers suggested they should have won, but the scoreboard didn't show it. Now they are on the brink of relegation. A loss and they are out. A draw leaves everything in the hands of a simultaneous match, and even third place would require an unlikely goal difference to reach the last 16.
Germany
Only seven teams have won their first two games; Germany are among them. However, their victory over Ivory Coast raised questions. They trailed for a long time before Denis Undava's late brace rescued them points. The game left German experts unimpressed by either Nagelsmann's play or tactics. Progress has come despite the bench, not because of it.
This raises the stakes for the match against Ecuador, a team that must win to stay alive. Whether Nagelsmann will make adjustments remains to be seen.

Ecuador vs. Germany: Author's Prediction
Ecuador has failed to score in either of their first two games despite creating numerous chances. This drought seems unbearable. They will likely find the net against Germany, even if they ultimately fail to score. Both teams that score look like valuable options.
