Team News

Brazil
Costa Rica
  • Endrick may have to settle for a spot on the bench with new Real Madrid teammate Vinicius Junior expected to lead the line for Brazil.
  • Patrick Sequeira is expected to get the nod between the sticks following Keylor Navas' retirement.

Prediction

  • Brazil head into their Copa America opener unbeaten in four but have won just two of those four matches having been held to draws by Spain and USA. With a number of key players missing - including Neymar and Richarlison - it remains to be seen whether they can land their 10th success this summer.
  • Costa Rica have won back-to-back matches heading into the Copa America as they beat St. Kitts and Nevis and Grenada. Los Ticos have lost their last nine meetings with Brazil, last beating the Selecao back in 1960.
  • Brazil are favourites to claim all the spoils, and spearheaded by Ballon d'Or contender Vinicius Junior, they should make light work of Costa Rica.

  • Savinho can't be on the bench for Raphinha.

  • What a disgrace for football this match and this Costa Rica team. Defending and luckboxing throughout the whole match. Brazil lacks so much quality. It is sad to see. Once a great football nation but nowadays a group of little boys and overrated players.

  • Brazil EZ W, should score at least 3

  • Brazil has been underperforming for many years now and their new head coach is Dorival Junior?! Who the hell is this guy and what has he achieved to become the new head coach?

  • Brazil just isn't Brazil anymore with the likes of Danilo, Guilherme Arane and Gomes. Also Guimaraes and Paqueta aren't the real deal like Kaka and Ronaldinho for example.

  • The ref is a joke, just like Brazil's left winger back and just like Costa Rica

  • @StickandMove Danilo is also a joke as same for the Brazil midfield

  • @StickandMove where can I watch it?

  • @MickeyClark I've got Viaplay but you should search a stream via hesgoal.tv

  • Jr +100 / Rodrygo +140 / Raphina +140 To Score Anytime

  • Je vois un 3-1 OU 4-1 Pourquoi pas le LDEM...

  • Viiinnniiiccciiiuuusss!!!
