Storylines
Brazil: This is a loaded Brazil squad with pretty much all of the big names outside of Thiago Silva and Philippe Coutinho, while there is also some top young talent like Arthur of Barcelona and Everton's Richarlison. Everybody knows what Brazil can do, and this is another chance to build chemistry.
Uruguay: Oscar Tabarez's side will be without Fernando Muslera, Diego Godin, Jose Giminez, Nahitan Nandez and other important players as a youthful team, outside of the attack, is expected to play. Three players on the roster have never been capped, while young stars Lucas Torreira, Rodrigo Bentancur and Giorgian de Arrascaeta highlight the midfield.
Brazil vs. Uruguay prediction
Sure, Uruguay still has Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez, but this Brazilian team is more experienced, and it shows in this contest.
Pick: Brazil (-200)
