Brazil will play against Chile in a qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup. The match is set for Friday, September 5, at 2:30 CET, and here’s a betting tip for the game.
Brazil vs Chile: Match Preview
Brazil has a new head coach, Carlo Ancelotti, who took over after a heavy 1-4 loss to Argentina. Despite that defeat, Brazil has already qualified for the 2026 World Cup. They have gained 25 points from 16 matches and are eight points ahead of eighth place with only two matches left in the qualifiers. Under Ancelotti, Brazil drew in his first match and then won against Paraguay.
Chile, on the other hand, is in a transitional phase and cannot qualify for the upcoming World Cup. They have only gathered ten points from 16 matches and sit at the bottom of the table with a goal difference of 9:24. Chile hasn’t won in their last four games, recording three losses and one draw. This will be the third consecutive World Cup they miss, with their last appearance in 2014, when they reached the round of 16 but lost to Brazil 1-2.
