Ecuador vs Curaçao: 2026 World Cup preview, odds & key players

Ecuador meet Curaçao with our model leaning Ecuador's way (53% to win, 24% draw). A young, athletic side built around Moisés Caicedo. Curaçao, meanwhile, the smallest nation ever to reach a World Cup.

Ecuador's edge comes from elite holding midfielder, but Curaçao will look to exploit cutting edge in attack. Expect a contest decided in the details, set pieces, transitions and the bench.
