Match forecast
Venezuela are the only winless side so far in this campaign after nine matches. They have not won any of their last matches in all competitions, while Brazil, on the other hand, have won four, lost one and drawn only one of their last six matches in all competitions.
The Green and Yellows come into this match as the favorites having won all their last three qualifying games so far. They beat Ecuador 3-0 away from home last month, then beat Colombia 2-1 at home, before thrashing Bolivia 5-0 in their most recent match.
All eyes will be on the striking due of Philipe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino (pictured below), who play for Brazil and Liverpool in the Premier League. The two forwards were on target when Brazil beat Bolivia 5-0 last Wednesday, and the away fans will be hoping that they will continue with their impressive partnership in this match against Rafael Dudamel’s side. With Venezuela having nothing to lose here, Brazil are expected to go all out for the three points.
