Players to Watch:

Moises Caicedo (Ecuador)

One of the most high-profile players in the squad, Caicedo is expected to play a pivotal role in the match against Venezuela. The youngster’s performance would determine Ecuador’s domination in the game. He has played exceptionally well for EPL giant Chelsea this season, featuring in 35 league games.

Caicedo needs to stay consistent throughout the game & block any possible chance created by the opponent’s midfield & forward line. The 22-year-old with his off-the-ball movement & passing attributes to the forward can also create a hefty amount of chances for his team.

Yangel Herrera (Venezuela)

The 26-year-old midfielder is Venezuela’s trump card to any issue in the current squad. The Girona CM has a decent performance in the Spanish league & was a consistent performer in the nation’s 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers game.

His ability to dominate the midfield is what Fernando Batista will bank on. Herrera is expected to cater to Soteldo, Rondon, & Savarino with quality passes & dispose-off threats coming from the lethal wingers & strikers of Ecuador.
