Prediction: 1-1
Uruguay
Estadio Fonte Nova will be the centre of attention when Brazil and Uruguay lock horns in a highly-anticipated World Cup qualifier. The Selecao dropped two points in a 1-1 draw with Venezuela and, no doubt, Dorival’s men aim to return to winning ways as soon as possible. Monaco defender Vanderson is banned for the match, while Guilherme Arana has been ruled out with injury. The likes of Alisson Becker, Rodrygo, and Eder Militao remain in the recovery room.
La Celeste, on the other hand, showed character in a 3-2 win over Colombia, with substitute Manuel Ugarte scoring the winner late in the stoppage time. As a result, the Manchester United midfielder should be recalled to the starting XI, while Marcelo Bielsa has no fresh injury worries. Anyhow, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw as Brazil and Uruguay seem to be evenly matched at the moment.
Highlighted Team (Brazil):
One of the most decorated teams in world football, Selecao have also been regarded as one of the most attractive and exciting teams with glowing reputation preceding them. Members of the CONMEBOL confederation, Brazil have played their first international in 1914 losing to bitter rivals Argentina with a comfortable 3-0 margin.
Brazil is the most successful nation in the FIFA World Cup with five championship title to their name. However, Selecao failed to advance past the quarter-finals of the last two tournaments last winning their World Cup in 2002. Their last title was the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and the star-studded team will be looking to get back to winning ways at this year’s historic Copa America Centenario in the United States.
Legendary Pele is Brazil’s top scorer with 77 goals to his name, while the team’s biggest star of the modern era Barcelona forward Neymar is sitting in fifth place having so far netted 46.
