Honduras vs Ecuador Live Stream Free: Watch Online World Cup 2014 Football (ESPN TV Start Time)
Honduras will play Ecuador on Friday night in a big World Cup 2014 Group E game. Both of these teams lost their opening matches, meaning this is a crunch game that neither can afford to lose. The game is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the ESPN network, or online through free live stream (details below).
In team news, Honduras will miss midfielder Wilson Palacios for today's game after his red card against France in the opening game. That means former Hibernian loanee Jorge Claros or Oscar Boniek Garcia may get the nod to fill in and try and find the match winner against a difficult Ecuador team.
Ecuador do not have any new injury concerns, and they are likely to put out the same starting line-up that lost to Switzerland. However, Juan Carlos Paredes will have to be careful in today's game as he is just one booking from a suspension.

Colombian, Rueda has spoken about the rivalry between these two nations, and said, "Obviously it is a match I would have preferred to have avoided. I love the people of Honduras very much and the love I have for them will always be there, even though we have a very intense 90 minutes ahead of us."
Luis Fernando Suarez has also said: "We achieved some great things together (in Ecuador) and I wouldn't be surprised if there is some sort of show of affection on the day of the game."
He added, "However, it is a different side to mine now, they have got a lot of new players, which is an indication in itself of how much they have progressed. I think they play better football now, and I like the team a lot more than I did when I was in charge."
