Check which TV channels to watch the game between Ecuador vs. Uruguay, for the second round of South American Qualifiers for the World Cup Mexico, Canada and the United States in 2026.
Since Friday, the 'Tri' has been secluded in their training center in the capital city of their country. The players are completely focused on leaving behind the 1-0 defeat against Argentina and finding the fastest way to overturn the three-point penalty they were given due to a resolution by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAS) related to the "Byron Castillo" case.
Goalkeeper Domínguez and midfielder Caicedo have exhibited themselves in top physical condition during recent training sessions. The former, who couldn't participate against the 'Albiceleste' due to an injury, seems to have fully recovered from his physical discomfort. As for the latter, who suffered a strong collision in the previous match, he also seems to be in excellent physical condition.
Regarding Uruguay, the team will carry out their training on Sunday at the Celeste Complex, located near Montevideo, as part of their preparation to face the northerners. Then, on Monday, they will depart for Ecuador on a private flight that will take off from Carrasco International Airport at 1:00 p.m. local time (4:00 p.m. GMT) heading to Guayaquil.
Finally, on Tuesday, they will travel to Quito. For the day of the match, Bielsa could opt for the same starting lineup that includes Sergio Rochet in goal, Nahitan Nández, Sebastián Cáceres, Matías Viña, and Joaquín Piquerez in defense; Federico Valverde, Manuel Ugarte, and Nicolás de la Cruz in midfield; and Facundo Pellistri, Darwin Núñez, and Maximiliano Araújo in the attack.
