Emelec is set to make its debut in the Liga Ecuabet on February 28, facing off against Delfín from Manta in their second match of the season. The team did not play in the first round due to a scheduling conflict with Liga Pro, where their match against Universidad Católica was postponed. With FIFA’s lifting of player registration bans, Emelec's coach, Vicente Sánchez, will have his full squad available for the game.

The match will take place at the George Capwell Stadium at 19:00, and fans will be able to watch it live on Zapping. This game holds significant importance for Emelec as they look to establish a strong presence in this season's Liga Ecuabet after the unexpected delay in their campaign. The outcome may rely heavily on the effectiveness of their newly available players, showcasing the depth of their roster.

As anticipation builds, local supporters of Emelec are eager to witness their team’s first performance of the season. The fixture against Delfín not only marks a fresh start for Emelec but also highlights the competitive nature of the Liga Ecuabet, promising an exciting matchup.
