Ecuador will bring their preparations for the upcoming Copa America to an end with a friendly against Honduras at Rentschler Field on Sunday. Having failed to win the last eight meetings between the two nations, Los Catrachos will head into the game looking to get one over Felix Sanchez’s men and make it three wins on the bounce.
Ecuador returned to winning ways on Wednesday when they edged out Bolivia 3-1 in a friendly at Subaru Park.
Before that, Sanchez’s side were on a two-game losing run, suffering back-to-back friendly defeats against Italy and Argentina respectively.
Ecuador will now look to close out their warm-up friendlies on a high before taking center stage at the Copa America, where they have been drawn in Group B, alongside Mexico, Jamaica and Venezuela.
Meanwhile, Honduras maintained their perfect start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers last time out as they thrashed Bermuda 6-1 at the Bermuda National Stadium.
This followed a 3-1 victory over Cuba in the Group A opener on June 7, a result which saw their four-game winless run across all competitions come to an end.
While Honduras will be looking to make it three wins on the bounce, they will need to be at their best against Ecuador, who are unbeaten in their last eight meetings since September 2007.
