Colombia desperate for points
Colombia go into this match with 14 points from ten matches and are at fifth place. Despite being one of the candidates to qualify for the next World Cup in Qatar, Colombia need a positive result here. Surely, coach Renaldo Rueda wants to finish the top four and gain automatic qualification.
However, to do so the Tricolors face the best team in the qualifications so far, Brazil. Moreover, the h2h history is not in favor of Rueda’s team. Notably, they beat Brazil just twice in the last three decades. As a result, Cuadrado and co need to come up with a great performance and at least their last result here that ended 1-1.

Brazil to maintain their unbeaten record
A 100% record sees Brazil top the World Cup South America qualifiers by eight points on their closest rivals. Also, they still have a match in hand against Argentina in Brazil. The Selecao are on the course of being the first team in South America to win all their WCQ games.
In their last match, the five-time world champions came from behind to beat Venezuela. In fact, Brazil went down in the first 11 minutes 1-0. But Neymar and co took control of the game with 67% possession of the ball. In the end, coach Tite’s team’s experience allowed them to hit back with three goals in the second half.
Brazil Key Points
- Brazil have six clean sheets in their last ten games
- The Selecao scored in nine of their last ten matches
- Tite’s team is unbeaten in their last four away games
Colombia vs Brazil Prediction
The fact that Brazil won all nine of their matches in the WCQ games will put more pressure on them. The same applies for Colombia however, as they want to finish in the top four.
The odds are quite high for this match. Even a Brazil win pays 2.14 at Vbet. Notably, all stats show that Brazil are the favorites to win this. To illustrate, Colombia’s record against Brazil will be a confidence killer for the hosts.
To conclude, Colombia are very determined to get points and they had a good result in Uruguay drawing 0-0. Hence we think a double chance combo with total goals scored from Vbet is our best choice.
