As for the selection, the Brazilian team seeks to guarantee the first place in Group B
Soon, Brazil returns to the field for the fourth round of Copa América. The schedule receives Colombia, at 9 pm (Brasilia time), at the Nilton Santos Stadium, in Rio de Janeiro.
Leader of Group B, Brazil is already classified for the quarter finals of Copa América. There were two victories in two games. A tie is enough for Tite’s time to confirm first place in the group.
The Brazilian team will once again have news in the lineup, but this time they are kept confidential. Tite closed the last two practices before the match. The only change announced is the entry of goalkeeper Weverton. Thus, the coach continues the rotation in the national team’s goal, which had Alisson in the debut and Ederson in the second round.
Spared in the last match, defender Marquinhos and defensive midfielder Casemiro can resume the title. Another one who should join the team is Midfielder Everton Ribeiro. Defender Felipe, with a sprained right knee, is out of the match.
Colombia, on the other hand, has so far four points from three games and has not yet registered a vacancy for the next phase, but may enter the field already qualified. For that, Ecuador just doesn’t beat Peru in the 18:00 game.
Colombians try to recover in the competition. After the victory over Venezuela on their debut, they drew a goalless draw with Ecuador and lost to Peru. The team comes without embezzlement for the match.
In history, Brazil and Colombia have faced each other 31 times, with a wide advantage from the Canary Islands: 18 wins, ten draws and only three defeats.
Group B has Brazil in the lead with six points, followed by Colombia (four points), Peru (three points), Venezuela (two points) and Ecuador, with only one point won.
