Selecao are eyeing a sixth World Cup crown

Brazil take on Norway in the World Cup last 16 on Sunday in what promises to be an entertaining affair in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

The Selecao came from behind to beat Japan 2-1 in their round of 32 tie, while Norway also needed a last-minute winner from Erling Haaland to see off the Ivory Coast in Arlington, Texas.

Stale Solbakken’s side finished second in Group I behind France, with the former Wolves boss making 10 changes against Les Bleus on matchday three with qualification already secured.

Brazil won Group C, despite being held by an impressive Morocco side in their opening game.

Brazil vs Norway is scheduled for a 9pm BST kick-off on Sunday, July 5, 2026.

The match will take place at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

TV channel: In the UK, the game will be televised live on ITV1, with coverage starting at 8.15pm.

Live stream: UK viewers can also catch the contest live online via ITVX app or the channel’s website.

Carlo Ancelotti is likely to be without Barcelona winger Raphinha here, with the forward struggling with a thigh problem.

Lucas Paqueta came off at half time against Japan, and Casemiro was also replaced.

Casemiro, the now former Manchester United midfielder, is thought to be available to play here, but Paqueta is a doubt, as he deals with a hamstring problem.

Brazil squad

Goalkeepers: Alisson Becker, Ederson, Weverton

Defenders: Marquinhos, Gabriel Magalhaes, Gleison Bremer, Leo Pereira, Roger Ibanez, Wesley Franca, Danilo, Alex Sandro, Douglas Santos

Midfielders: Casemiro, Bruno Guimaraes, Fabinho, Danilo, Lucas Paqueta

Forwards: Vinicius Jr, Raphinha, Matheus Cunha, Luiz Henrique, Gabriel Martinelli, Neymar, Endrick, Rayan, Igor Thiago

For the Norwegians, their main concern is Julian Ryerson, the first-choice right-back, who missed the first knockout round with a thigh niggle.

He could come back in here, and he is the only injury concerrn to Solbakken.

Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard remain their shining lights, with Antonio Nusa catching the attention of many with his sumptuous finish aganist the Ivory Coast.

Brazil vs Norway prediction

This should be an entertaining encounter, with neither side the most robust defensively.

That said, for all the star quality Norway have with Haaland and co, Ancelotti’s men should have too much for them here.

Brazil to win, 3-1.

Brazil wins: 0

Norway wins: 2

Draws: 2
