How to watch the Copa America match between Argentina and Ecuador, as well as kick-off time and team news. Copa America holders and reigning world champions Argentina will look to punch their ticket in the last four without any fuss when they face Ecuador at NRG Stadium in Houston on Thursday.
La Seleccion’s defence of their Copa America crown has gone flawlessly so far. The world champions won all three of their group matches against Canada, Chile and Peru without conceding a goal and should sweep past a limited Ecuador outfit next.
Ecuador secured their place in the quarter-finals with a creditable 0-0 draw with Mexico, after earlier beating Jamaica, and while they have demonstrated that they can put up some fight, they may not be able to handle the quality of Lionel Messi & Co.
Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.

Argentina team news
Argentine captain Lionel Messi missed the final group game as a precaution amid a reported minor hamstring problem, but the Inter Miami superstar has trained without any problems since and should be ready to start from the outset against Ecuador.
Alexis MacAllister, Julian Alvarez, and Rodrigo De Paul were among those rested against Peru last time out, and all three are set to return as manager Lionel Scaloni reverts to his strongest XI.
Inter Milan hitman Lautaro Martinez is making a strong case to be the Albiceleste’s leading striker, having scored for a fourth match running, as his brace propelled Argentina to a victory over Peru.

Ecuador team news
Ecuador are set to remain unchanged from the side that took the field in the 0-0 draw against Mexico, meaning Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo will start in the middle of the park alongside Atletico Mineiro’s Alan Franco.
Ecuador’s all-time record goalscorer, former Everton and West Ham forward Enner Valencia will start up top as he looks to add to his impressive haul of 41 international goals.

Things are so far, so good for the reigning champions, who won all of their games in the group stage and have yet to concede a goal. They have done this with and without Messi, who played in their first two games and assisted Lautaro Martinez’s goal against Canada but missed the Group A finale against Peru.
Messi was not exactly needed since they had already qualified for the quarterfinals, which afforded head coach Lionel Scaloni a chance to show off his depth. It was a successful trial — Martinez scored twice, bringing up to four goals so far at the Copa America.
