In this article we are going to talk about Brazil National Football Team Vs Argentina National Football Team Lineups to get more prediction.
Argentina is home to some of the greatest talents on earth and boasts some of the greatest players worldwide in their national team. Argentina will look to capture three points from this matchup and hope that all players contribute towards victory.
Fernando Diniz is unlikely to make many adjustments after Colombia defeated their side 5-2, though Nottingham Forest right-back Gabriel may remain as right back while young attacker Endrick could also make an appearance.
Brazil
Brazil are out to avoid suffering another setback in World Cup qualifying and will aim to do so against reigning champions Argentina on Tuesday evening. Although recent struggles have plagued them, Brazil are still capable of earning one of four automatic qualification spots, while this match provides Argentina an opportunity to show they have recovered after their loss to Uruguay in Buenos Aires on August 14.
Interim coach Fernando Diniz may need to make several adjustments due to an injury crisis at Real Madrid. Real Madrid youngster Vinicius Junior could join Neymar, Casemiro and Richarlison on the sidelines, while Danilo Marquinhos Gabriel Magalhaes Carlos Augusto may vie for left-back spots; Andre and Bruno Guimaraes should form central midfield partnerships.
Diniz is expected to opt for his traditional 4-3-3 formation despite injury concerns, with Alisson replacing Ederson at goalkeeper, Gabriel Jesus leading up front alongside Rodrygo and Endrick Raphinha. Paulo Dybala of Manchester United and Leandro Paredes of Juventus may both hope for spots on the bench but unlikely play a prominent role.
Lionel Scaloni will attempt to stir things up amid the absence of several key players, including Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi and defender Nicolas Gonzalez; Leandro Paredes and Nicolas Otamendi may not feature due to injury; Giovani Lo Celso and Lautaro Martinez could step in as replacements in Giovani Lo Celso and Lautaro Martinez’s absence respectively. Argentina are one of the most successful teams ever seen at FIFA tournaments and enter this game as favorites – they’ve won six out of seven previous meetings against Brazilian opposition before.
Argentina
Argentina hopes to end their World Cup qualifier slump against Brazil at Maracana with a victory. Lionel Messi takes on a team that sent him home early from 2014 World Cup final at this iconic stadium that has provided both heartbreak and joy during his remarkable career. Coach Gerardo Scaloni will look for Messi to provide that spark in this must-win matchup for both sides.
Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni must contend with several injuries ahead of their upcoming clash against England. Nottingham Forest defender Gonzalo Montiel may miss out, while Atletico Madrid pair Nicolas Otamendi and Nicolas Tagliafico could be left off of their starting lineups.
Brazil boasts several players healthy enough to feature, with Dorival Junior being supported by Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr and Endrick who all contribute significantly in attack. Ederson and Neymar’s absence will still be felt heavily by Dorival’s side however.
Argentina was dealt a shock defeat against Colombia last month, yet still manages to hold two points ahead of Venezuela in South American rankings. Now hoping for redemption against Brazil this month, but without Hector Cuellar as their player. Cuellar was suspended due to receiving a red card against Colombia.
Team news
On Wednesday, two of South America’s premier teams will renew one of the game’s greatest rivalries as Brazil meets Argentina at Maracana. The outcome could have a profound impact on each side’s chances to qualify for World Cup 2026 finals and would ensure one of six positions within CONMEBOL table.
Interim manager Fernando Diniz will have some selection challenges to deal with for this game against England and Spain, with Manchester City’s Danilo and Arsenal’s Hector Bellerin both recovering from injuries. Neymar and Casemiro may miss out due to injury; it’s expected that Diniz will opt for an approach similar to that seen against England and Spain where Rodrygo, Endrick Raphinha and Julian Alvarez would start in front three once more with Julian Alvarez possibly receiving some sort of role on the pitch.
Lionel Scaloni will look to avoid another reshuffle after Argentina’s 1-0 victory against Ecuador last time out, so PSG midfielder Leandro Paredes may once more miss out due to a calf injury. Paulo Dybala may also miss out, although Gonzalo Montiel may step in at right-back while Nicolas Otamendi and Marcos Acuna should start in central defence positions respectively.
Rodrigo De Paul is expected to retain his spot, along with Enzo Fernandez and Alexis Mac Allister from Manchester United and Real Madrid’s Lisandro Martinez respectively, in defense. On offense, Lautaro Martinez and Angel Di Maria may replace Alejandro Garnacho of Manchester United and Lisandro Martinez of Real Madrid; finally Javier Mascherano will likely miss this match due to knee injuries.
Predictions
Brazil and Argentina will renew one of the sport’s greatest rivalries when they meet for a World Cup qualifying match at Maracana Stadium on August 3, 2012. Interim coach Fernando Diniz faces some selection dilemmas due to Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr joining Neymar, Casemiro and Richarlison among those sidelined due to injury.
Argentina will look to build on their impressive 1-0 victory against Ecuador in their most recent international friendly. Lionel Scaloni should resist making drastic changes, instead opting for slight tweaks like replacing Manchester United defender Nicolas Otamendi with Lautaro Martinez or dropping Arsenal winger Lucas Perez down the bench in favor of Giovani Lo Celso.
Both teams will look to bounce back from disappointing performances in their previous qualifying round matches. Brazil was dealt a stunning 2-1 defeat against Colombia while Argentina were held to a goalless draw by Venezuela at Maracana stadium – particularly punishing as their defeat sent them plummeting down into sixth position in South American standings and put Diniz under greater strain.
Brazil will be without Ederson, Danilo and Eder Militao due to injury. Abner or Guilherme Arana could likely take Abner or Guilherme Arana’s spot at left-back alongside Gabriel Magalhaes in that position; while Fabinho could replace Danilo midfield while fullback Lucas Paqueta will get his debut international cap.
Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk will miss all remaining matches this season after receiving a red card against Crystal Palace last weekend, leaving their backline vulnerable. Dorival Junior may opt for an altered defensive structure with Abner and Fernando Luiz likely pairing at centre back.
