Leroy Sané’s early strike was not enough as Ecuador came from behind to beat Germany 2-1 in a pulsating World Cup encounter. The German winger opened the scoring inside two minutes, but Ecuador turned the match on its head with goals from Nilson Angulo and Gonzalo Plata.

◆ CheckLive verdict
Slight edge — Germany
CheckLive's preview leans firmly toward Germany, driven by a commanding edge in mental composure and recent form. Germany's recent run includes 17 goals in five matches, a rhythm Ecuador's defence may struggle to contain. The historical blank slate offers no precedent, but the statistical picture is one-sided.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who will win the match between Ecuador and Germany?
Germany are the clear favourites to win. Their superior form, mental edge, and attacking firepower make them the likeliest winner. Ecuador will need a near-perfect performance to take points off a side that has swept through the group stage so far. A Germany victory is the most probable outcome based on all available indicators.
Who has better form coming into this match?
Germany have the better form, as shown by their five-match winning streak with 17 goals scored. Ecuador have struggled for consistency, with only two wins in five and a leaky defence. The form gap is significant and points to a comfortable Germany performance. Form is further reinforced by Germany's tournament experience.
Will both teams score in Ecuador vs Germany?
The BTTS market is less likely here. Germany's defence has conceded only four goals in five games, while Ecuador have scored more than once only twice in that span. Germany's control of possession should limit Ecuador's chances, making a clean sheet probable. The stats suggest a low-scoring game tilted toward Germany's favour.
