Brazil's internationals experienced a mixed week of results at their European clubs, headlined by a red card for Vinicius Junior. The forward came on in the 52nd minute and was sent off in Real Madrid's 1-0 La Liga win over Villarreal on 10 October.
At Arsenal, the Brazilian duo fared better. Bruno Guimaraes came off the bench in the 63rd minute to score in a 2-1 Premier League victory over Leeds. Centre-back Gabriel Magalhães played the full match in that game. Both players then started in Arsenal's 3-0 UEFA Champions League win over Lille on 13 October.

Goalkeeper Alisson played the full match in Liverpool's 3-0 loss to Manchester City. Igor Rodrigues of Brentford and Rayan of Bournemouth also started their respective Premier League fixtures.
