Brazil v Australia TV details, two Flamengo players available to Ancelotti | OneFootball

Brazil face Australia at Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville, on Friday at seven Brasília time, their first friendly since the World Cup during the Super Data FIFA window.

According to Coluna Do Fla, Rede Globo will show the match free-to-air. SportTV and GeTV on YouTube will also carry coverage.

On Thursday 24, Carlo Ancelotti confirmed Brazil will start with Hugo Souza in goal. The back four is Matheuzinho, Marquinhos, Vitor Reis and Douglas Santos, with Danilo and Bruno Guimarães in midfield and Estevão, Raphinha, Endrick and Vinícius Jr in attack.

Pedro and Samuel Lino, the two Flamengo players in the squad, are available but will begin on the bench. There is an expectation the pair will feature. Ancelotti said he wants to assess new options in midfield and plans to rotate there while keeping the defence on for longer.

Brazil meet Australia twice in this window, with the opener on Friday, then a second match on Tuesday 29 at seven Brasília time at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.

They then face India for the first time on Friday 3 October at 11 Brasília time at Salt Lake Stadium in Calcutta. FIFA created the Super Data FIFA window by unifying the September and October slots into a single 16-day period, pausing club football from 21 September to 6 October.
