White has only two pawns : e4 , f4 and black has only two pawns : e6 , f7 . each king is at his initial square and niether side has minor and major pieces . So which side has stronger pawn structure ( elaborate your choice with reason ) ?๐

This position is a draw. The pawn structures do not differ in any meaningful way.
As a general rule pawns are best placed side by side. The weakness of the pawn is in the square directly in front of it. Side by side they protect each others weakness.
White plays Ke2 black plays f6. The position is nearly symmetrical.

It may be a draw if you are playing, but I'm pretty sure I could find a way to lose.
