But in their last two games, Gareth Southgate’s team has not impressed, winning 2-0 against Malta in a dull match before drawing in North Macedonia against a team they defeated 7-0 in a previous qualifier.
The Three Lions take on the South Americans at a favorable moment, and a friendly against Brazil should guarantee a respectable atmosphere at Wembley, where they have won their past five games.
The Brazilian national team has lost its last three World Cup qualifying matches against Uruguay, Colombia, and Argentina. Fernando Diniz was fired following the squad’s most recent 1-0 loss to their fiercest rivals, and Dorival Junior assumed leadership for the first time.
As the backbone of the club from the previous season—Alisson, Casemiro, and Neymar—he has a difficult assignment ahead of him. If Real Madrid is to defeat Southgate’s team, a lot will need to be done by Vinicius Junior of Real Madrid.
Due to Harry Kane’s ankle injury, Ollie Watkins or Ivan Taylor could have an opportunity to shine, and with spots for Germany up for grabs, there should be no shortage of players trying to make an impression.
Has England ever beat Brazil?
England national team have defeated Brazil 4 times in the past, in 1956, 1984, 1990 and 2013.
In this period, England have as well lost to Brazil 11 times with a couple of draw.
The last time England defeated Brazil was a 2-1 win in an international friendly on February 06, 2013.
