Brazil will have to host Chile in the first of their final two 2026 FIFA World Cup CONMEBOL Qualifiers without some of their biggest superstars.
The June international break was an eventful one for the Seleção. Carlo Ancelotti made his debut on the touchline, Brazil did not suffer a defeat and the team ultimately punched its tickets to next summer’s World Cup.
With qualification already secured, Ancelotti left Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo and Éder Militão in Madrid to give new faces the time to shine in September. Neymar also was not included in the manager’s squad, while Matheus Cunha and Alex Sandro were forced to withdraw due to injury.
Here’s what Brazil’s XI could look like against Chile.
