Qatar is slightly overpriced to win against Ecuador. The hosts have had a good year and are in form ahead of this game. Backing Qatar to avoid defeat (+0.5) against Ecuador is the best available option in this fixture.

Qatar begins its World Cup tournament with a game at against Ecuador at the Al Bayt Stadium on Sunday.

Qatar has had good performances this year. They are currently ranked in the top 50 of the FIFA World rankings. Qatar performed well in the Arab Cup and can get a good result against Ecuador.

The World Cup hosts have avoided defeat in their last five matches, winning four of those games and sharing points in one occasion. Qatar's last competitive game was a goalless draw against Egypt in the Arab Cup. They won Egypt on penalties.

Qatar has been in good goal scoring form, finding the back of the net in five consecutive games with a total of eight goals in that period. The hosts are also very good defensively. They have kept three clean sheets in their last five games.

Ecuador has not been in great winning form in the last few months. The South Americans have one win in their last five games, picking up four draws. Ecuador has failed to beat teams weaker than Qatar and they're likely to struggle against the hosts.

The away team come into this game on the back of a goalless draw against Iraq. It was Ecuador's third consecutive game without a goal. They had similar results in the friendlies against Japan and Saudi Arabia.

Ecuador is in poor scoring form. They have found the back of the net just once in their last five games, with a lone goal against Cape Verde. Ecuador doesn't have much in attack to trouble a resilient Qatar defense.

Qatar and Ecuador have met just once in 2018. Qatar won by four goals to three inspired by Almoez Ali, and dominating proceedings from start to finish. The World Cup hosts have a better team this year and can match that result.

Qatar is determined to kick off their campaign as hosts with a win. They are in much better form than Ecuador and the best option in this game is a home win or draw.

卡塔尔在对阵厄瓜多尔的比赛中被高估了一点。东道主今年表现不错，在这场比赛前状态良好。支持卡塔尔避免输给厄瓜多尔(+0.5)是本场比赛最好的选择。

卡塔尔将于周日在Bayt体育场与厄瓜多尔展开世界杯比赛的首场比赛。

卡塔尔今年表现不错。他们目前在国际足联世界排名中排名前50。卡塔尔在阿拉伯杯上表现出色，对阵厄瓜多尔可以取得好成绩。

世界杯东道主巴西队在最近5场比赛中避免了失败，其中4场取得胜利，并在其中一场比赛中分享了积分。卡塔尔的上一场比赛是在阿拉伯杯上0 - 0战平埃及。他们在点球大战中战胜了埃及。

卡塔尔的进球状态很好，连续5场比赛破门，期间共进8球。东道主的防守也很好。他们在最近的五场比赛中保持了三场零封。

厄瓜多尔队在过去的几个月里并没有取得很大的胜利。南美人在最近5场比赛中取得了1胜，4平。厄瓜多尔从未击败过比卡塔尔弱的球队，他们很可能会在与东道主的比赛中遭遇困难。

客场队在与伊拉克的比赛中0 - 0战平。这是厄瓜多尔连续第三场比赛一球未进。他们在与日本和沙特阿拉伯的友谊赛中也取得了类似的成绩。

厄瓜多尔的得分状态不佳。他们在最近五场比赛中只有一次破门，在对阵佛得角的比赛中只有一个进球。厄瓜多尔在进攻上并没有太多能力去干扰卡塔尔的防守。

卡塔尔和厄瓜多尔在2018年只会晤过一次。卡塔尔在阿里(Almoez Ali)的激励下以4比3获胜，并从开始到结束控制着比赛。世界杯东道主今年有一支更好的球队，他们可以取得同样的成绩。

卡塔尔决心以一场胜利开启他们作为东道主的征程。他们的状态比厄瓜多尔好得多，这场比赛最好的选择是主场取胜或打平。
