Ecuador's recent form has been troubling, with their last match resulting in a loss and no goals scored in their only World Cup fixture so far. They have had a decent gap of 10 days since that match, allowing for some recovery time, but their lack of scoring ability is a significant concern. With no injuries or suspensions reported, they will need to find a way to convert chances into goals if they hope to compete against a strong German side.
