Brazil will aim to make it two wins on the trot as they head to Asuncion for Tuesday's 2026 World Cup qualifier showdown against Paraguay.
After securing a solid 0-0 draw against Uruguay in their last outing, Paraguay will be aiming for a similar result or even an upset victory in this clash.
Brazil edged past Ecuador with a standout display from Real Madrid's Rodrygo. However, they will be looking to raise their level after an underwhelming performance.
With Vinicius Junior and his talented squad in tow, Brazil know they must secure a win to stay hot on Argentina's heels in the race for a 2026 World Cup spot.

Midfielder Mathias Villasanti, who made an impact off the bench in Friday’s game, is vying for a spot in the starting lineup after getting over 30 minutes of playing time.

Brazil team news
Brazil will be missing Real Madrid centre-back Eder Militao, who picked up an injury just before their win over Ecuador. Injuries have also sidelined Borussia Dortmund's Yan Couto, Manchester City's Savinho, and Flamengo's Pedro, all of whom had to withdraw from the squad.
Coach Dorival may opt to stick with the lineup that started against Ecuador, meaning Luiz Henrique could earn a second consecutive start. The Botafogo forward is expected to lead the attack alongside Real Madrid stars Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior, while their young teammate Endrick might find himself starting from the bench again.
