Here is a comprehensive compilation of TV schedules and listings for Brazil's friendly against the USA.

The international break is underway, with a number of standout friendlies set to be played at the beginning of September. One of those promising ties is Brazil's friendly against the USA.

The Selecao will make the trip to the MetLife Stadium on Friday night to lock horns with the Stars and Stripes in their first game since the World Cup. While their campaign in Russia was not an utter disaster similar to Germany's, the South American powerhouse failed to meet expectations and will thus be keen to return to winning ways.

Neymar and Co. were heavily tipped as the favorites to win the tournament. However, the five-time champion crashed out in the quarter-final against Belgium, with their PSG superstar being heavily criticized for his theatrics.

The world's most expensive player has apologized to the fans and vowed to return a better man, with this friendly set to be a start. A lot more pressure will be on the 26-year-old, as Tite has named the former Barcelona ace as Brazil's permanent captain.

Neymar will be joined by Coutinho, Willian, and Firmino but the likes of Jesus, Fernandinho, and Marcelo did not get called up. However, they will face a United States side missing key attacker Christian Pulisic.

The Borussia Dortmund sensation is currently on the sidelines with a muscular injury, but the Stars and Stripes will have a number of familiar faces to field. These include Tim Weah, Weston McKinnie, and Major League Soccer talents Tyler Adams and Wil Trapp.

For the home side, their mission is simple: salvage pride after the embarrassment that was their failure to qualify for Russia 2018. Dave Sarachan is the manager tasked with achieving that goal, with the Selecao being a tough but thrilling challenge.
