Team news & rosters
| Position | Brazil roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Weverton, Everson, Santos |
| Defenders | Dani Alves, Marquinhos, Miranda, Danilo, Alex Sandro, Militao, Arana, Verissimo |
| Midfielders | Casemiro, Paqueta, Everton Ribeiro, Bruno Guimaraes, Edenilson, Gerson |
| Forwards | Neymar, Hulk, Gabriel Barbosa, Vinicius Jr, Cunha |
Brazil restarted its World Cup qualifying campaign with a 1-0 win over Chile thanks to a goal from Everton Ribeiro, staying six points clear at the top of the CONMEBOL standings.
The game against Argentina will likely be more of a challenge, especially with many key players absent due to the coronavirus restrictions in the United Kingdom.
Premier League players have not joined up with the squad, meaning the likes of Alisson, Ederson, Thiago Silva, Roberto Firmino and Gabriel Jesus are all absent.
Predicted Brazil starting XI: Weverton; Danilo, Militao, Marquinhos, Sandro; Ribeiro, Casemiro, Guimaraes, Vinicius; Barbosa, Neymar.
| Position | Argentina roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Rulli, Musso, E. Martinez, Armani |
| Defenders | Martinez Quarta, Tagliafico, Montiel, Molina, Pezzella, Acuna, Otamendi, Foyth, Romero, Lisandro Martinez |
| Midfielders | De Paul, A. Correa, Di Maria, Dominguez, Palacios, Gomez, Rodriguez, Lo Celso, Paredes, Buendia |
| Forwards | Messi, Gonzalez, J. Correa, Dybala, Lautaro Martinez, Alvarez |
Lionel Messi failed to score in Argentina's 3-1 win over Venezuela, meaning he still needs one goal to match Pele as the highest-scoring South American player ever.
Argentina have been able to call up their Premier League stars, with Emiliano Martinez likely to continue in goal and Giovani Lo Celso set to feature in midfield.
Lionel Scaloni's side currently sit second and look in a comfortable position to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.
Predicted Argentina starting XI: E. Martinez; Molina, Pezzella, Otamendi, Acuna; De Paul, Rodriguez, Lo Celso; Di Maria, Messi, Lautato Martinez.
