How to watch on the Big Screen
Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:
- Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
- Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don’t support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
Team news & squads
Australia have no confirmed injury or suspension news at this stage, and no probable lineup has been released. Updates are expected closer to kick-off.
Brazil will be without Joao Pedro, who has withdrawn from the squad due to injury. Matheus Martinelli of Fluminense has been called up as a replacement. No further injury or suspension information is currently available for Ancelotti’s side.
Form
Australia head into this fixture having won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five matches. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 defeat to Egypt at the World Cup, and they also fell 2-0 to the United States during the group stage. A 2-0 win over Turkiye offered a brighter moment, while draws against Paraguay and Switzerland rounded out a mixed run. Across those five games, Australia scored five goals and conceded four.
Brazil’s recent form tells a more positive story overall, with three wins, one draw and one defeat across their last five. They beat Japan 2-1 and Scotland 3-0 at the World Cup, and also saw off Haiti 3-0. A 1-1 draw with Morocco and the 2-1 loss to Norway in the round of 16 were the low points. Brazil scored nine goals in that five-match stretch and conceded four.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these two sides came in a 2017 friendly, which Brazil won 4-0. The head-to-head record across the last three known fixtures is heavily in Brazil’s favour, with the Selecao also winning 6-0 and 2-0 in earlier encounters. Brazil have scored twelve goals across those three matches without conceding.
