The Brazil national team will play India in an unprecedented international friendly this Saturday, 3 October, in Kolkata. The match is scheduled for 11:00 Brasília time at the Salt Lake Stadium and will be broadcast on TV Globo and SporTV. Head coach Carlo Ancelotti stated he «continuará fazendo testes em amistoso que encerra os jogos da Seleção Brasileira nesta Data Fifa».
Vinícius Júnior, who has four goals this season, was on the scoresheet in that victory. The starting lineup is expected to see several changes, with Pedro Morisco tipped to start in goal and Endrick favoured to lead the attack. India, ranked 137th in the FIFA standings and winners of the 2021 SAFF Championship, face the biggest challenge of their recent football history. The match concludes Brazil's commitments in this FIFA window before a return to official competition.
