The preview

Ecuador and Curaçao meet at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday in a Group A must-not-lose situation for both sides, with each team sitting on a single point after drawing their openers. Ecuador comes in as an overwhelming favorite — Vegas has them at -750 — and they should be the class of this matchup against a Curaçao side making their World Cup debut and looking a bit shaky in the final third.

The over/under sits at 2.5, and with Ecuador needing a win to stay in contention, expect them to come out pressing for an early goal rather than sitting back and playing for a nil-nil. Bold call: Ecuador keep a clean sheet and find the net at least twice, Curaçao's fairy tale debut runs into a cold South American reality check.
