Live descriptive stats
Predicted = the pre-match model's expected goals; actual = xG created so far. A calibration read, not a forecast.
Descriptive only — the pre-match probability tile above does not change during the match.
Analysis
How it plays out
Ivory Coast's possession game against Ecuador's transition approach. Ecuador will concede the ball willingly and look to strike when Ivory Coast commit numbers forward. Ivory Coast will expect to hold 58% possession. Ecuador need their shape to stay compact without the ball and be clinical when they win it back.
What decides it
Ivory Coast's possession game (58% avg) requires patience in the final third and quick ball recovery when they lose it. Ecuador will concede possession willingly and attack in transition. Their defensive block needs to hold without fouling in dangerous areas. Franck Kessié's 8.4% scoring probability is the highest in this fixture. Containing that output is Ecuador's primary defensive task.
Off the pitch
No major off-pitch asymmetries. This one is decided by the football.
The angle
Likely the last World Cup for Enner Valencia. Tournament experience at this level is hard to quantify but hard to replace.
