Ecuador Women will square off against Uruguay Women at Estadio Banco Guayaquil in the first round of the Copa America Femenina 2025 on Friday. Both teams were eliminated from the first stage in the previous edition and will look to book a spot in the knockout stage this time around.
La Tricolor met Guatemala in two friendlies in preparation for the Copa America and won both games, including a 1-0 win earlier this month. They kept clean sheets in both games after having failed to score in two friendlies against Paraguay in May and June.
Las Celestes met Mexico in a friendly last month and suffered a 1-0 loss, ending their unbeaten streak after three games. They have been eliminated from the group phase in the last four editions of the Copa America.
