What is at stake for Brazil and Chile?

Brazil have already qualified for the 2026 World Cup as they cannot be caught by seventh-placed Venezuela, and Ancelotti may use this clash as an opportunity to experiment with his squad.

The relatively new boss will be keen to build chemistry with his players and familiarise them with his plans in order to better their quarter-final finishes from the 2018 and 2022 editions of the tournament.

As for Chile, they can no longer catch up to the top seven, even if they were to take six points from six across their final two matches.

With that in mind, La Roja's motivation for victory this week is pride, and they may sense an opportunity to take advantage of Selecao as they have one eye on next summer.
