This is what to expect from the encounter.

Who is playing today? 👀

Brazil and Haiti meet in Pennsylvania for the second game of the tournament with both teams looking to pick up their first wins.

A Vinícius Júnior strike saw Carlo Ancelotti's side come from behind to claim a point in a 1-1 draw against Morocco in an entertaining affair on matchday one.

Haiti won plenty of plaudits for their performance in a narrow 1-0 loss to Scotland but things could have been even better had Frantzdy Pierrot's late header ended up the right side of the post.

There are concerns about Casemiro's conditioning after he was withdrawn at half-time of the opener for Matheus Cunha and Ancelotti will have a decision to make about whether he opts to go more attacking this time.

Neymar is still sidelined through injury, while elsewhere in attack, Brentford standout Igor Thiago didn't have much involvement against Morocco but should have more opportunities this time - if the man in charge keeps faith with him to lead the line.

Imposing Haiti goalkeeper Johny Placide caught the eye in his side's first game but will be tested much more this time out by the Seleçao, while at the other end of the park the lively Wilson Isidor will cause Brazil's back-line issues if he is supplied with appropriate service.
