Prediction: 0-1
Brazil
Estadio Nacional Julio Martinez Pradanos will be the centre of attention when Chile and Brazil go head to head in a highly-anticipated World Cup qualifier. La Roja are not enjoying a campaign to remember, with the team recording only one win in the process and they must be low on confidence following three consecutive defeats. Both Gabriel Suazo and Marcelino Nunez have been ruled out with injuries, while Udinese ace Alexis Sanchez remains in the recovery room.
The Selecao, on the other hand, aim to recover from a shocking 1-0 loss to Paraguay. Brazil have already suffered four defeats in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, but seeing that Chile head into Friday’s clash with a severely-weakened squad, we are tempted to put our money on Rodrigo and Co. Bear in mind, though, that Real Madrid defender Eder Militao has joined the likes of Bremer, Guilherme Arana, Alisson Becker, and Vinicius Junior in the recovery room.

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.
