Japan vs Brazil: schedule, where to watch and lineups

The Brazilian team returns to the field this Tuesday (14), at 7:30 am (Brasília time), to face Japan , in Tokyo, in an international friendly that serves as preparation for the 2026 World Cup. This is the second of two tests that Brazil is doing in Asia. Last week, Brazil beat South Korea 5-0, in Seoul.

The matches will allow coach Carlo Ancelotti to observe some key players who could help the base of the team that will represent the country in the World Cup. The game will be broadcast on TV Globo , GETV , and SporTV .

For Tuesday's match, the Italian coach will make only one change. In goal, former Athletico goalkeeper Bento will be replaced by Corinthians' Hugo Souza, who is making his debut with the national team.

There's still a question mark in the attacking sector. Estêvão has come down with the flu and could be replaced by Lucas Paquetá if he's not fit to play.

Hugo Souza; Vitinho, Eder Militão, Gabriel Magalhães and Douglas Santos; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães and Rodrygo; Stephen, Vini Jr. and Matheus Cunha.
