How to watch the Copa America match between Mexico and Ecuador, as well as kick-off time and team news.

Mexico and Ecuador will square off at State Farm Stadium on Sunday in the final round of Copa America Group B fixtures.

This is essentially a knockout game, with a Copa America quarterfinal berth on the line. Both teams have three points after the first two rounds of the group stage, and Ecuador have the benefit of knowing that a draw would be enough for progression as they sit second, while a win is a must for Mexico.

Both teams have beaten Jamaica and lost to surprise package Venezuela, although Ecuador were down to 10 men halfway through the first half as Enner Valencia was dismissed.

Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.

Mexico team news
Mexico will be missing captain and defensive midfielder Edson Alvarez, who was pulled out against Jamaica with what seemed to be a hamstring problem. Luis Romo will take his place as a holding midfielder alongside Luis Chavez in this match.

Meanwhile, Santiago Gimenez and Alexis Vega received yellow cards in the 1-0 loss to Venezuela, putting them at risk of missing the quarterfinals if Mexico progresses to the next round.

Through the first two games, Mexico’s attack has been inconsistent, scoring just once. They will need to change that in this game and could be looking at Feyenoord hitman Santiago Gimenez for a boost. In the 2023-24 season with Feyenoord, Gimenez scored 23 goals and provided six assists.

Mexico possible XI: Gonzalez; Sanchez, Montes, Vasquez, Arteaga; Romo, Chavez; Antuna, Pineda, Quinones; Gimenez

Ecuador team news
In a significant boost, Ecuador will be able to welcome back captain Enner Valencia, who missed the second game against Jamaica after being sent off against Venezuela on Matchday 1, for this pivotal clash.

Wonderkid Kendry Paez is an attacking force from the midfield for Ecuador alongside Jeremy Sarmiento. Alan Franco and Moises Caicedo will hold the fort in the engine room, providing added assurance to the backline.

Ecuador possible XI: Dominguez; Preciado, Torres, Pacho, Hincapie; Franco, Caicedo; Yeboah, Paez, Sarmiento; Valencia
