Uruguay vs Brazil | Free Betting Preview | World Cup Qualifier betting tips

The clash of the South America titans at the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo where Uruguay welcome their rivals Brazil in a clash for 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying.
Brazil can take a big step towards topping their World Cup 2018 qualifying group on Thursday night.

Uruguay have won every home World Cup qualifier they’ve played since March 2013 so they are very strong on own soil and haven’t lost a competitive home match since 2009. 

Early Copa America elimination threatened to be a morale blow to Uruguay, who still managed to get back to winning ways and preserve their spot in the race for the World Cup 2018 in Russia. Uruguay are currently on the 2nd place in the South American qualifying group trailing Brazil by 4 points in first and the forthcoming clash will be a great chance to close the gap behind the group leaders. 

Uruguay will have to improve their form showed in their latest matches, which saw them succumb to a 3-1 defeat at Chile last time away from home. 

Uruguay are facing a huge challenge to their World Cup 2018 bid as another failure will place them in serious trouble. Hopes of beating Brazil would have been much higher if Uruguay didn’t have selection problems which will see them lock horns with Brazil without 2 of their key men.

Uruguay key man Luis Suarez is suspended, together with goalkeeper Fernando Muslera.

Gaston Ramirez is returning to the team after some fine performances, whereas the experienced full-back Alvaro Pereira is ruled out through injury.

Brazil appear to have made all the right moves after sacking Dunga, who led Brazil to disappointing lows during his time in charge. Brazil is once again running in full charge and in recognizable Brazilian style. 

Tite (Adenor Leonardo Bacchi) has been able to transform the team and Brazil got back to winning ways with 7 straight victories in all competitions ever since the Copa America elimination in the group stage. 

5 consecutive clean sheets come as a huge confirmation of a much-improved defensive exploit for the Brazilian national team, whereas the high-scoring results are there to offer delight to the anticipating fans, who are expecting their team to grab the WC 2018 visa without many problems.

27 points from 12 matches offers great reassurance as Brazil head to Montevideo high on confidence. Lead by in-form key players Neymar and Coutinho, Brazil are expected to put in a great display.

Gabriel Jesus is the only unavailable player for the forthcoming clash as the Brazilian is struggling with injury.

Douglas Costa has been replaced by Palmeiras’ Dudu, who is expected to start from the bench.
