Brazil to play 4-3-4 formation against Eagles

Brazil coach, Tite could retain the same line-up against Nigeria’s Super Eagles for today’s international friendly at the Singapore National Stadium.

The 58-year-old fielded a 4-3-4 formation against the Teranga Lions of Senegal last Thursday i which Roberto Firmimo opened the scoring before Famara Diedhiou equalised from the penalty spot.

There is a likelihood that that Tite may drop Firmino or Gabriel Jesus who both started the match against Senegal  in favour of Richarlison or Everton.

Fabinho should replace Casemiro at the base of midfield while Arthur and Philippe Coutinho should retain their starting berths.

However, Tite does have Lucas Paqueta available and youngster Matheus Henrique is also in the squad.

In defence, Renan Lodi could start at left-back if Alex Sandro is rested but Dani Alves should line up on the opposite side of defence.

Marquinhos and Thiago Silva both started against Senegal so Eder Militao could come in while Ederson will continue in goal.
