Match Stats

Whenever Brazil enters a major competition, they invariably set their sights on victory, and this occasion is no exception.


In their last two outings at this tournament, they reached the final. However, the last time this event was held in the United States, Brazil suffered the ignominy of failing to progress past the group stage for the first time since 1987.

Meanwhile, Costa Rica's pursuit of a fourth consecutive World Cup appearance has begun impressively, winning their opening twomatches by a combined score of 7-0.


Gustavo Alfaro's side will encounter tough competition in the group stage of this tournament, marking their return after last competing in 2016.


Prediction: Costa Rica+2.25
