2023-11-18 11:18:21

After the surprising loss against Uruguay in the Bombonera, the Argentine National Team is aiming with everything for the classic against Brazil, for date 6 of the South American Qualifiers towards the 2026 World Cup in Mexico, Canada and the United States.

On Tuesday, Lionel Messi and company will return to the MaracanĂ¡ stadium where the last time they were there they were crowned champions of America, on July 10, 2021. Now the match has less significance than on that occasion but the Albiceleste will try to make history against one of his lifelong rivals.

Brazil has the historical record of never having lost a qualifying match playing at home. The five-time world champions, who do not have an injured Neymar and who in recent days lost Vinicius Junior, have played 64 matches in that condition in the Qualifiers and have a brutal record of 51 wins, 13 draws and zero losses.

However, in the last duel in Brazil they suffered an unexpected blow when they gave up points for the first time against Venezuela, which is fighting to reach its first World Cup and tied it 1 to 1, at the end of the match, at the Arena Pantanal in Cuiaba. Can Scaloneta write another golden page?

How is the history between the Argentine National Team and Brazil

In head-to-head, Canarinha has a minimal advantage over Albiceleste. In total they won 42 matches, while Argentina was victorious 41 times. The remaining 26 duels (there are 110 in total with the one that was not completed in the previous Qualifiers) between these two teams ended tied.
