Paquetá tipped to start for Brazil v Morocco at the World Cup | OneFootball

When is the Brazil vs Morocco match?

Paquetá played in Brazil’s last two friendlies before the World Cup and pleased coach Carlo Ancelotti. For this reason, the Flamengo player has a strong chance of starting against Morocco on Saturday (13).

According to ESPN, Ancelotti liked Lucas Paquetá’s movement against Panama and Egypt. The Flamengo player was therefore able to play as a right winger while also operating as a midfielder. Because of this, the red-and-black club’s number 20 is expected to start in the World Cup.

It is important to note that Ancelotti still has to decide Brazil’s starting lineup for the World Cup opener. The Italian coach will have around four training sessions to assess things with his staff and decide which players will begin the match among the starting 11.

Could another Flamengo player start in the Brazil vs Morocco match?

Yes! Besides Paquetá, Danilo could also start for Brazil against Morocco. That is because Wesley suffered a muscle injury and was ruled out of the World Cup. Therefore, the Flamengo player is the only one available to Ancelotti in that position.

When is the Brazil vs Morocco match?

So, with the possible presence of Danilo and Paquetá, Brazil face Morocco this Saturday (13) in the first round of the World Cup group stage. The match will therefore kick off at 7 p.m. (Brasília time), with coverage by Rede Globo on free-to-air TV, SporTV on pay TV, and CazéTV on YouTube.
