Mexico vs Brazil Prediction & Match Preview

Mexico vs Brazil Prediction

• Mexico go into this off the back of a 0-4 defeat to Uruguay.
• Brazil drew 3-3 to Spain in their latest friendly in March this year.
• Brazil have three wins and a draw in the last four encounters with El Tri.

Kyle Field in Texas will play host to a friendly between Mexico and Brazil on Saturday evening. This will be the last test for Mexico before the Copa America next month while Brazil also have a match against the United States on schedule in three days.

The Mexicans were in action on Wednesday evening. They suffered a painful 0-4 defeat to Uruguay. El Tri were completely outplayed on the occasion. Head coach Jaime Lozano will desperately want to see his team rebounding against Brazil on Saturday.

The Brazilians got off to a shockingly poor start to the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifications. They are as low as 6th in the South American standings with just two wins in six outings so far. Selecao have lost three qualifiers on the spin.

Recent Meetings

• These two teams last met each other at the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Brazil claimed a 2-0 win in the last-16 round tie on the occasion.
• Brazil will go into this on the back of three wins and a draw in the previous four encounters against El Tri.
• None of the previous five H2H games between these counterparts produced three or more goals.

The Verdict

Both teams will feature in both this exhibition and Copa America without some big names. Nevertheless, Brazil possess much more quality in this roster.

Head coach Dorival Junior can count on many stars from European football. We expect him to rest the likes of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo who featured for Real Madrid in the last weekend’s UEFA Champions League final win over Borussia Dortmund.

Nevertheless, Mexican defence looked horrendous in a catastrophic loss at the hands of Uruguay three days ago. Brazil also have tradition to back them up in this matchup. We will back the Brazilians to have the lead at the half time and win the game at the end at the odds of 2.37.

Brazil drew 3-3 to Spain in their previous match in March this year. Mexico shipped four goals to Uruguay three days ago in another exhibition. We have enough reasons to back the Over 2.5 goals FT bet at the 1.80 odds. Also, three of Mexico’s last five games in all competitions provided at least three goals.
