Brazil returns to the field on Thursday night to face Chile in the 17th round of the South American Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. The match kicks off at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Maracanã, in Rio de Janeiro (RJ).
Already qualified for the World Cup, the Brazilian National Team is in third place in the standings with 25 points, the same as second-placed Ecuador.
This match is expected to be the last appearance of the Seleção on home soil before the 2026 World Cup. Ticket sales are going strong, with over 45,000 already sold. The expectation is for a crowd of around 70,000 fans at Maracanã.
At the bottom of the Qualifiers, Chile has only ten points and no longer has a chance of going to the World Cup. The team has not won in the tournament for four games, with three losses and one draw in that period.
Alexis Herrera (VEN) will be the referee for the match. He will be assisted by Lubin Torrealba (VEN) and Alberto Ponte (VEN). In charge of VAR will be Ángel Arteaga (VEN).
