With their 0 point advantage in the league table, Emelec fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Guayaquil City.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Guayaquil City have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 6-10-23 (win-draw-loss) from 39 matches. This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
