Venezuela vs Brazil Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Seleção will look to build on their momentum.

CONMEBOL World Cup 2026 qualifiers will continue during this international break and feature Venezuela hosting the mighty Brazil on Matchday 11. La Vinotinto are placed eighth in the table with 11 points from their opening 10 matches. They have two wins, five draws and three losses to their name.

With the World Cup expanding, six teams will directly qualify for the tournament from South America this time around and the team finishing seventh will take part in the inter-confederation play-offs. Venezuela have a great opportunity to make the World Cup for the first time in its history.

Brazil on the other hand are finally picking up form after having a slow start to their qualifying campaign. They rose to fourth place during the previous international break. Seleção have five wins, one draw, and four losses in their first 10 games. They are level on points with Uruguay and are now in a firm position to make the prestigious tournament held in the U.S.A.

KickOff:

Friday, November 15, 2024 at 2:30 AM IST

Venue: Estadio Monumental de Maturín

Form:

Venezuela (in all competitions): L-D-D-L-L

Brazil (in all competitions): W-W-L-W-L

Players to watch out for:

Yeferson Soteldo (Venezuela)

The 27-year-old is one of the most technically gifted players in the entire Venezuela team. His first touch and his ability to get rid of his marker is amazing. He presses the opposition relentlessly as well which helps his team in recovering many balls.

Soteldo gave an assist against Argentina during the last international break and secured a point for his team. So, something similar will be expected from him against another difficult opponent.

Vinicius Jr (Brazil)

Vinicius Jr is yet to hit his full stride in international football. He seems to be a shell of his Real Madrid self whenever he dons the national team’s jersey. The winger has only scored five goals in 35 appearances but his ability shouldn’t be doubted. Now that the pressure is slightly off, it’s a good opportunity for Vinicius to perform and gain some confidence.
