Ecuador need to beat Germany to keep alive their hopes of progressing to the knockout stage of the World Cup.
The South American nation boast plenty of talent in their ranks yet they sit third in Group E after collecting a paltry point from meetings with the Ivory Coast and Curacao.
A victory over Germany, who have already been confirmed as group winners, might not even be enough to secure second place and anything less than three points would probably see them heading home early.
Germany gaffer Julian Nagelsmann has the luxury of resting key players after bagging maximum points from their two outings so far.
Deniz Undav could come into Die Mannschaft’s starting XI after netting three goals off the bench including the dramatic injury-time winner against the Ivory Coast last time out.
