Our Netherlands vs Ecuador prediction is for a match that could see the first team qualify for the last 16. This Group A clash will be played on 25/11/2022 at 16:00. If you follow our World Cup 2022 predictions you will have noticed that we consider every detail to make a prediction: statistics, history, best players and even possible line-ups. As if that wasn't enough, we've rounded up the operators with the highest odds so you can place your Netherlands vs Ecuador bets with the biggest advantage.
⚽ Netherlands National Team
Despite not having won a title in decades, the Netherlands are always one of the strongest teams in Europe. Proof of this is that they are ranked eighth in the FIFA rankings.
👟 How Did the Netherlands Qualify?
The Netherlands were one of the teams that qualified directly through the UEFA Qualifiers. They topped Group F, where they narrowly edged out Turkey (+2 points).
Their record in the qualifiers was 7 wins, 2 draws and only 1 defeat at home to Turkey 4-2. They had one of the best forwards in Europe, scoring 33 goals. This equates to 3.3 goals per game.
🔝 Netherlands Players to Watch
Despite the Netherlands usually relying on the youth of their players, for Qatar 2022 they have prepared a team with a little more experience. That is not to say, however, that there are no young players in their starting line-up.
The Netherlands' most notable players include:
- Ryan Gravenberch (Bayern Munich)
- Jurrien Timber (Ajax)
- Matthjis de Ligt (Bayern Munich)
- Gody Gakpo (PSV)
- Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool)
The only problem the Netherlands might have is that there are some players who might not recover in time for the World Cup. The most sensitive (though unlikely) casualty would be Depay.
⚽ Ecuador National Team
Ecuador's national team was surrounded by controversy ahead of the World Cup. However, their place remains assured. It currently holds one of the worst positions in the FIFA ranking of qualified teams: 44.
👟 How Did Ecuador Qualify?
While Brazil and Argentina battled for the top spots in the CONMEBOL qualifiers, Ecuador proved to be one of the most consistent teams. Especially when they played at home.
For this reason, they qualified directly for the World Cup by finishing fourth behind Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. It achieved this by enjoying the second best forward line of the entire tournament behind only Brazil.
Their record was 7 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats, with a goal difference of +8. After missing out on the 2018 World Cup, Ecuador will be playing in their fourth World Cup, hoping to return to the last 16.
🔝 Ecuador players to follow
Ecuador have one of the youngest squads in the entire CONMEBOL area at 24.7 years old on average. This could prove tricky for new coach Gustavo Alfaro, who has only had 12 games in charge of the national team.
Ecuador's top players include:
- Gonzalo Plata (Valladolid)
- Pervis Estupiñán (Brighton)
- Moisés Caicedo (Brighton)
- José Cifuentes (LAFC)
- Piero Hincapié (Leverkusen)
Despite being in the twilight of his career, Enner Valencia wants to continue making his mark with the Ecuador national team. He is already the team's top scorer: in 74 games he has scored 35 goals.

💸 Netherlands vs Ecuador statistics
All our Netherlands vs Ecuador predictions point to a Dutch victory. The Ecuadorian team has proven to be a more fragile team than they looked heading into this World Cup.
These are 3 points that make us think the Netherlands will win:
- The Netherlands is one of the black beasts for all CONMEBOL teams (with the exception of Uruguay). The Clockwork Orange have a positive record against the likes of Argentina and Brazil.
- The Netherlands have not lost a group stage match since the 1994 World Cup when they lost on matchday two to Belgium. Since then they have had 10 wins and three defeats.
- Ecuador have had a dismal 2022 in terms of results. They have won just 2 out of 9 games played, compared to 1 defeat (against Paraguay) and 6 draws. Including draws against Brazil and Argentina.
Having skipped the 2018 World Cup, Netherlands will want to prove that they are still one of the best teams in the world. And a win against Ecuador would put them with one foot in the last 16.
