Brazil take on Japan at the NRG Stadium stadium, Houston city, USA in the second last-32 fixture at the World Cup.
The Selecao, managed by Carlo Ancelotti, reached the knockout phase with ease after swatting aside both Haiti and Scotland in Group C, but their opening draw with Morocco was some cause for concern.
Neymar made an appearance off the bench against the Scots, but he’s unlikely to make a serious contribution here. Vinicius Jr has been their star man and is looking to score his fifth goal of the tournament as one of those stars chasing Lionel Messi in the Golden Boot race, having netted in every game so far.
Japan, meanwhile, qualified second from Group F following draws against both the Netherlands and Sweden and a 4-0 thrashing of Tunisia.
Blue Samurai boss Hajime Moriyasu masterminded defeats of both Germany and Spain at the last World Cup – could he achieve another major upset here?
