Fernando Diniz worked with a group of 11 people including two Madrid players. Neymar arrived later than the rest but will also start in the match against Venezuela.

Brazil wants to extend its impressive run of results in the Qualifying Round and to do that they will have to beat Venezuela at home this Thursday. With his full call-up, Fernando Diniz was able to field the eleven in that he will line up at the Arena Pantanal in Cuiabá and could see the presence of Vinicius Júnior and Rodrygo in the starting lineup.

Vinicius returned from injury and the new Brazilian coach was booked. In the last few games against Real Madrid he has been at his best and scoring goals and his position on the left wing is untouchable.

For his part, Rodrygo started the first two qualifying matches in the position that now belongs to his teammate. However, he will take advantage of Raphinha’s absence due to injury to stay in the starting eleven. A new opportunity can help you forget the bad moment with the white shirt.

Neymar arrives a few hours later than the rest of the group but Diniz is counting on him and wants to build his confidence so once again he will attack with full freedom to combine and reach the final meters. A luxurious trident would form with two young Madridistas to surround Richarlison, who would occupy the point of attack.

Defensively, Diniz has more problems due to injuries to a greater or lesser extent and for this reason, the squad of 4 will be formed by Danilo, Marquinhos, Gabriel Magalhaes, and Guilherme Arana. The PSG midfielder was also one of the last to arrive at the CBF training center but is a key figure in the dressing room.

Bruno Guimaraes will be another of the permanent pieces in midfield to provide the meter-covering of the field that they enjoyed at Newcastle and alongside him will be Casemiro, who is not doing so well at Manchester United. He was sent off in the Champions League against Galatasaray and a few days later, Ten Hag replaced him at half-time as the team lost at home. However, in Brazil right now no one will move him out of the starting eleven.

After the match against Vinotinto, Brazil will have a few more days working at home before traveling to Montevideo, where on Tuesday they will have a tense match with Bielsa’s Uruguay, which will be one of the best matches of the year this FIFA day.
