Qatar vs Ecuador Form and Head to Head stats&nbsp;

Qatar and Ecuador have previously faced each other off three times, with one victory each in the head-to-head matches. The first encounter between the teams took place in February 1996 and finished in a 1-1 draw. A week later, the South American Giants, Ecuador, won the second game 2-1.

In their most recent clash, Qatar won 2-1 in an exciting match in October 2018. Ecuador had two red cards throughout the game, but they responded well, and they ultimately came in second place. It's interesting to note that nine players from that game are now on Qatar's team.

The outcome will have an impact on both teams' subsequent games as they try to advance to the next round. On November 25, Ecuador will play the Netherlands; the next day, Senegal. On the same day, Qatar will play the same opponents in reverse order.
