Brazil form

Brazil comes into this intense duel against Argentina after suffering two consecutive defeats, the latest being a 2-1 loss to Colombia last Thursday. Fernando Diniz’s team is currently in fifth place in the standings with 7 points.

It has been three games since the Canarinha last secured a victory in the tournament, having garnered only one point from the last nine contested. Today’s match is crucial because it is played against a historic rival, with the aim of defending a crucial stat: Brazil has never lost as a host in CONMEBOL qualifiers.

The Brazilian team will be without key figures such as Ederson, Danilo, Casemiro, Neymar, and Vinicius Jr, all of whom are injured.

Brazil possible lineup

Alisson, Emerson Royal, Marquinhos, Gabriel Magalhães, Carlos Augusto; André, Bruno Guimarães; Raphinha, Gabriel Jesús, Rodrygo and Gabriel Martinelli.
Coach: Fernando Diniz.

Argentina form

Argentina will seek to win in Rio de Janeiro to maintain its position as the leader of the qualifiers. Lionel Scaloni’s team lost its unbeaten record against Uruguay, falling 2-0 in Buenos Aires last Thursday.

The objective for the Argentinians is to win the historic derby in Brazil, causing the Brazilian team to suffer its first home defeat in CONMEBOL qualifiers. As a special touch, this will be Lionel Messi‘s last official game in the yellow-green country.

There is a great memory for the Argentine team at the Maracanã, which is the final of the 2021 Copa America, where the Albiceleste side defeated Brazil 1-0. That historic milestone was the last complete football match between both teams on Brazilian soil.

Argentina possible lineup

Martínez; Molina, Romero, Otamendi, Tagliafico; De Paul, Fernández, Paredes; Messi, Álvarez.
Coach: Lionel Scaloni.
