Head to Head
Last 1 Meetings (Ivory Coast leads 1-0)Ivory Coast and Ecuador have met once in a competitive fixture, with Ivory Coast winning that match 1-0 during the 2026 World Cup. Since this is the only meeting in the recorded history, there is insufficient data to identify a pattern or trend between the two teams. The match took place recently in 2026, making it relevant for current tactical considerations, but the limited sample size means any conclusions drawn from this encounter should be approached with caution.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team
Data-driven football predictions and betting tips
This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.
Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
