That is also 7:00 PM locally.<\/p>\n<p>No US broadcaster had been confirmed at the time of writing &#8212; the match carries no network on ESPN&#8217;s listing and is not on TUDN&#8217;s or Telemundo&#8217;s schedules. Teleamazonas has it in Ecuador. Check local listings closer to kick-off.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Ecuador vs Costa Rica: what&#8217;s at stake?<\/h2>\n<p>Ecuador&#8217;s last competitive football was a World Cup that said a lot about them. They beat Germany 2-1 in the group stage, drew 0-0 with Cura&#231;ao, lost 1-0 to Ivory Coast and went out 2-0 to Mexico in the round of 32 &#8212; four games, two goals scored. In September they were beaten 3-0 by South Korea.<\/p>\n<p>That is the pattern worth holding on to: two goals in their last five matches, and three clean sheets in the same run. This is a side that is hard to beat and harder to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Costa Rica arrive mid-rebuild under Bryan Ruiz, who took the national job this autumn. Their recent football has been CONCACAF Nations League &#8212; 2-0 and 3-0 wins over Haiti and Nicaragua, a 2-0 defeat to Haiti and a 4-3 loss to Cura&#231;ao. Quito, and the 2,850 metres that come with it, is a different proposition entirely.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Team news and talking points<\/h2>\n<p>Ecuador named a 29-man squad on Sunday with <strong>Piero Hincapi\u00e9 and Mois\u00e9s Caicedo both back from injury<\/strong>, which matters more than most returns for a team whose record is built on its defence rather than its attack. This is also Ecuador\u2019s first senior outing at the Atahualpa in more than nine years, so expect a full house and a loud one. Costa Rica named their list last Friday, with Alajuelense goalkeeper Bayron Mora included; Bryan Ruiz also carries four standby players who train with the group without being confirmed to travel. The rest of the window is in our <a href=\"\/us\/news\/internationals\/\">international coverage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Ecuador vs Costa Rica prediction<\/h2>\n<p>Altitude does most of the talking here. Costa Rica are a reasonable side in CONCACAF but they are arriving in Quito from sea level with a new manager and a squad still being assembled, and Ecuador have conceded in only two of their last five. The hesitation is at the other end: this Ecuador team does not score goals, and one may well be enough. Prediction: Ecuador 1-0 Costa Rica.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Ecuador vs Costa Rica FAQ<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What time is Ecuador vs Costa Rica?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Ecuador vs Costa Rica kicks off at 7:00 PM ET \/ 4:00 PM PT on Friday, November 13.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What channel is Ecuador vs Costa Rica on in the US?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No US broadcaster had been confirmed at the time of writing.
