Leo Pereira and Danilo to start? See Brazil's line-up vs Croatia | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti has decided the team that will take the field against Croatia

There will be Flamengo in the starting lineup of the Brazilian National Team that faces Croatia this Tuesday (31) in a friendly match in the United States. That is because Léo Pereira is confirmed in Carlo Ancelotti’s starting eleven for the match, which kicks off at 9 p.m. (Brasília time).

WHAT IS BRAZIL’S LINEUP FOR THE FRIENDLY?

Bento, Ibañez, Marquinhos, Léo Pereira and Douglas Santos; Casemiro and Danilo Santos; Luiz Henrique, Matheus Cunha, João Pedro and Vini Jr.

The match will be played at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, United States. Léo Pereira, Danilo and Wesley (ruled out of the national team due to injury) know the venue well. Last year, the trio was there for the Club World Cup match between Flamengo and Los Angeles (USA). On that occasion, the match ended 1-1.

LAST CHANCE BEFORE THE WORLD CUP?

It is worth noting that this will be Brazil’s last friendly before the World Cup squad announcement. On May 18, Carlo Ancelotti will reveal the final list of 26 players who will compete in the tournament. After that date, the five-time world champions will play only two more friendlies, against Panama and Egypt, before the competition begins.

WHERE TO WATCH BRAZIL VS CROATIA?

With Léo Pereira and Danilo available, Brazil will try to get back to winning ways after losing 2-1 to France last Thursday (26). The clash with Croatia, meanwhile, is being treated as revenge, since the teams met in the quarterfinals of the 2022 World Cup, with the Europeans coming out on top.

This Tuesday’s match (31) will be broadcast by TV Globo across Brazil on free-to-air television. In addition, SporTV (pay TV) and GETV (a channel on YouTube) will also show the match against Croatia. However, Coluna do Fla, on its website and social media, will provide a summary of how the match went.
