Latest Brazil vs Paraguay team information
Midfielder Casemiro – who has not played for Brazil since 2023 – returned and had an excellent performance against Ecuador, likely to continue to keep his starting position.
With no significant injuries, coach Ancelotti will likely give Antony and Matheus Cunha a chance to start, replacing Estevao Willian and Richarlison.
Vinicius Junior – who has often been criticised for his poor form for the national team – has only scored one goal in qualifying, the winner in a 2-1 win over Colombia in March. The Real Madrid star is desperate to make his mark.
On Paraguay's side, the team has no problems with its squad after the victory over Uruguay, bringing an almost full squad for the away trip.
Although striker Antonio Sanabria (four goals in qualifying) did not score in the last match, Julio Enciso got his third goal with an 81st-minute penalty – and the winger is looking to score his fourth goal in qualifying.
Latest expected lineup Brazil vs Paraguay
Brazil:
Alisson; Vanderson, Marquinhos, Ribeiro, Sandro; Guimaraes, Casemiro, Gerson; Antony, Cunha, Vinicius
Paraguay:
Fernandez; Caceres, G. Gomez, Alderete, Alonso; D. Gomez, Cubas, Galarza, Enciso; Almiron, Sanabria
Latest football commentary Brazil vs Paraguay
Much was expected of Carlo Ancelotti's debut as Brazil boss, but the Italian failed to lead his side to a goalless draw with Ecuador last week.

The result left the five-time world champions unable to recover from a painful 4-1 defeat to arch-rivals Argentina in March. It was also the third time Brazil have failed to win two consecutive matches in this round of qualifying – after a run of four matches between October and November 2023 (including three defeats) and two 1-1 draws with Venezuela and Uruguay in November 2024.
Although that defeat did not directly affect the “Seleção”'s chances of attending the 23rd World Cup, winning only 1 of the last 5 matches in the qualifying round is clearly a concern in the long term.
Going into Ancelotti's first home game, Brazil had won just six of their 15 games – an unimpressive return for a team that was fourth and looking for its fifth win in qualifying.
However, four of their six wins have come at home, where the Canarinhos are on a four-match unbeaten run (three wins). Brazil will be looking to extend that run when they host Paraguay.
On the opposite side, coach Gustavo Julio Alfaro's team just caused a surprise when they defeated Uruguay 2-0 and surpassed Brazil on the rankings.
The win extended Paraguay's unbeaten run to nine matches since September 2024 – including five wins – and took them one step closer to the World Cup finals, a tournament they last played in 2010 in South Africa.
Paraguay have 24 points from 15 games ahead of Tuesday night’s game – two more than Brazil and six more than Venezuela (7th). If they get another positive result and Venezuela fails to score against Uruguay, they could well secure a place at the 2026 World Cup.
