In a highly anticipated rematch, Venezuela and Brazil are set to rekindle their rivalry once more, one year following their confrontational encounter in Mato Grosso, as they both strive for glory on the road to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
With all ten teams from CONMEBOL back in action during the November international break, Brazil’s Seleção enters the fray buoyed by back-to-back victories—their first streak of wins since September 2023. They are eager to secure another three points against a struggling Venezuela side that has found itself without a win in its last five outings.
Both teams are grappling with considerable injury woes, impacting their chances as Yordan Osorio, Jhon Chancellor, and Teo Quintero won’t be available for La Vinotinto. Brazil’s head coach Dorival Júnior is also missing key players, including superstars Neymar, Alisson, Rodrygo, Éder Militão, and Bremer.
Nonetheless, with electrifying talents like Vinícius Júnior and veteran Salomón Rondón poised to take the field, fans can expect a thrilling match filled with the potential for spectacular goals that they won’t want to miss.

**Editor:** Both teams are facing injury challenges. How do you think that will affect their strategies going into this match?
**Maria Solano:** Injuries inevitably change the dynamics. Brazil has lost superstars like Neymar and Alisson, which means other players will need to step up, like Vinícius Júnior.

**Maria Solano:** Fans should keep an eye on the young talents—especially Vinícius Júnior for Brazil, who’s shown promising skills lately. For Venezuela, Salomón Rondón’s experience up front can make a significant difference.
