Brazil vs Argentina Prediction & Betting tips
In Australian Melbourne, the upcoming Friday will be the South American Superclassico between Brazil and Argentina on the program. Even if it’s only a friendly duel and especially Brazilian side, not all big names are present, both countries are obliged to make a good return.
Brazil :
Since the appointment of Tite coach, it is on track at Brazil. The Divine Kanaries were the first country to hold a ticket for the World Cup next year in Russia. Fourteen World Cup qualifiers yielded ten wins, including a riveting 3-0 victory over eternal arch rivals Argentina in November last year.
Brazil is therefore on roses, so Tite sees this practice contest for what to experiment. Big names like Neymar, Roberto Firmino, Marquinhos, Marcelo and Dani Alves got rest and are not in Melbourne so the party. Only eleven players from the 23-member selection have more than ten caps behind their name. However, the selection of yellow shirts still fails the talent, with players like Coutinho, Alex Sandro, Willian and Gabriel Jesus and Douglas Costa as key taste makers. Also, Thiago Silva finally seems to wear the Brazilian shirt to wear the shoulders. Paris Saint Germain’s mandek is the big man at his club, but in Brazil for the past two years, he took action for fifty minutes. Furthermore, it becomes interesting to see if Gabriel Jesus is able to draw the Brazilian car without Neymar.
Probable setup Brazil
Weverton; Fagner, Thiago Silva, Gil, Filipe Luis; Fernandinho; Paulinho, Renato Augusto, Willian, Coutinho; Gabriel Jesus
Argentina :
The Melbourne Cricket Ground is the theme of the debut of the fresh Argentine coach Sampaoli on Friday. The bald Argentine, who has regularly received the crowds in Seville last season, is the third choice since the 2014 World Cup, in which La Albiceleste finished the final. The Argentine’s selection excels from the stars, but both Martino and Bauza did not get the world’s second-largest champion. With a preliminary fifth place in the South American qualification, World Cup participation is absolutely not self-evident. However, Sampaoli is happy to take up the challenge. “I could not walk the opportunity to work with Messi,” said Sampaoli. “The best player in the world needs to feel good here. It is important to find players who complement him. Both him and I are very excited. ”
Like the Brazilians, the Argentinians have not traveled to Australia for full war. Mascherano, Aguero, Rojo and Lavezzi are the most striking absents. Messi received an invitation, as well as players like Di Maria, Higuain and Dybala. Yet there are strikingly many new faces in the Argentinian selection. No less than fifteen of the 26 players have played up to five international teams. Nine of them even have to make their debut yet.
Probable setup Argentina
Romero; Gomez, Maidana, Otamendi, Mercado; Biglia, Banega; Messi, Dybala, Di Maria; Higuain
