The England team is the favorite to win the friendly against the Brazilian men’s team, according to the main bookmakers.

Next Saturday, the 23rd, at 4pm, Brazil will begin its journey on the FIFA date in an international friendly against the English, marking the beginning of Dorival Júnior‘s management.

The Canarian team is determined to improve its performance under the new coach, especially after facing three consecutive defeats in the World Cup qualifiers.

Furthermore, this confrontation represents the Brazilians’ return to the challenge of facing European teams, an absence that dates back to their elimination by Croatia in the last World Cup.

The last time Brazil played a friendly match against a European team was in 2019, against the Czech Republic.

On the other hand, England, under the command of Gareth Southgate since 2016, has demonstrated consistency, accumulating a long undefeated streak.

The team suffered its last defeat in the quarterfinals of the 2022 World Cup, against France. Since then, they have recorded eight wins and two draws in Euro 2024 qualifying, as well as a friendly against Australia.

However, a possible casualty for the English is the absence of Bayern Munich‘s top scorer and captain Harry Kane due to a left ankle injury.

Era Dorival Jr.

In the group called for this month’s two friendlies, the coach called on eight newcomers to help him at the start of the new phase, but the big technical highlight is striker Vini Jr., from Real Madrid.
