The rivalry between Brazil and Uruguay has often been overlooked, but ever since the 1950 "Maracanazo", Los Charrúas and A Canarinha have delivered some exciting matches for fans around the world to watch.
Uruguay's record shows they have won two World Cup titles, which can be overshadowed by Brazil's 5. But when it comes to South American tournaments, Uruguay has emerged victorious in more Copa América editions than anyone (15). Brazil's latest results have made the gap a bit smaller, but they are still way behind with only eight titles in CONMEBOL's biggest tournament.
When it comes to World Cup Qualifying stages, there's no one better than Brazil, as the Verdeamarelha side hasn't missed a single global tournament. On the other hand, Uruguay has only been included in 12 World Cup editions, leaving their combative style at home more times than they would have wanted.
