Brazil face India at 11:00 Brasília time on Saturday three, their third and final outing of the extended Super Data FIFA. On the eve of the game, Ancelotti outlined a side featuring Flamengo striker Pedro.
According to GE, Friday’s session in Calcutá began with Pedro among the starters, making him favourite to take Raphinha’s place after the winger withdrew injured.
The projected XI is: Pedro Morisco, Matheuzinho, Marquinhos, Arthur Dias and Douglas Santos, then Danilo, Bruno Guimarães and Gabriel Bontempo, with Estevão, Pedro and Vini Júnior ahead.
Brazil have two Flamengo players available, Pedro and Samuel Lino, and Lino will start on the bench.
The first-ever friendly will be shown on Rede Globo, SporTV and GETV on YouTube.
This Super Data FIFA combines the usual September and October windows into one 16-day block, pausing club competitions between 21 September and six October.
It is Brazil’s third game since the 2026 World Cup, following a 1-1 draw and 4-2 win over Australia under Ancelotti.
