The Seleção will try to continue its momentum.
CONMEBOL's 2026 World Cup qualification will continue during this international break, with Venezuela hosting powerhouse Brazil on matchday 11. Vinotinto is eighth in the standings with 11 points from the first 10 games. He has two wins, five draws, and three losses to his credit.
With the expansion of the World Cup, six teams from South America will qualify directly for the tournament this time and the team that finishes in seventh place will participate in the interconfederal play-offs. Venezuela has a great opportunity to qualify for the World Cup for the first time in its history.
Brazil, for their part, is finally finding form after a slow start to the qualification campaign. He moved up to fourth place during the previous international break. The Seleção has five wins, one draw, and four losses in the first ten games. It is tied on points with Uruguay and is now in a good position to participate in the prestigious tournament organized in the United States.

Venezuela vs Brazil lineups, injury, and team news
Yordan Osorio will not be available for Venezuela due to an unknown injury.
Brazil, meanwhile, will be without Rodrygo and Eder Militão due to hamstring and ACL injuries.
Yeferson Soteldo (Venezuela)
The 27-year-old is one of the most technically gifted players in the entire Venezuelan team. His first touch and ability to throw his marker is incredible. He also relentlessly pressures the opposition, which helps his team recover a lot of balls. Soteldo provided an assist against Argentina during the last international break and earned his team a point. So we'll expect something similar from him against another tough opponent.
Venezuela (4-2-3-1)
Romu (GK); Aramburu, Ramirez, Ferraresi, Navarro; Herrera, Cásseres Jr.; Machís, Savarino, Soteldo; Rondo
Vinicius Jr (Brazil)
Vinicius Jr has yet to reach his full potential in international football. He looks to be a shadow of his former Real Madrid form when he wears the national team shirt. The winger has scored just five goals in 35 appearances, but his ability should not be doubted. Now that the pressure is off, it's a good opportunity for Vinicius to perform and gain some confidence.
Brazil (4-2-3-1)
Ederson (GK); Vinicius, Gabriel, Marquinhos, Vanderson; Guimarães, Gerson; Martinelli, Raphinha, Vinicius Jr.; Jesus

Venezuela vs Brazil Prediction
The visitors come into this match as heavy favorites. It seems that Dorival Júnior is finally getting the best of the Brazilian team. Despite having a home advantage, Venezuela is unlikely to be able to compete with an in-form Brazil. Our prediction for this match is as follows:
Prediction: Venezuela 0-2 Brazil.
