Top Teams Clash in the 15th Round of Qualifiers Despite Rising Covid Concerns
Brazil will travel to Ecuador for a crucial World Cup qualifier on Thursday night, as the two top-three teams in the South American standings meet in the 15th round of games. With Brazil already securing their place in the Qatar 2022 finals, having won 11 of their matches and conceded just four goals, the game is important for both sides in terms of maintaining momentum.
Ecuador, enjoying home advantage, will be hoping to strengthen their position in the standings. However, the match will be played behind closed doors due to an increase in local Covid-19 cases, adding an extra layer of uncertainty to the encounter.
