The match is a part of Matchday 16 of CONMEBOL&rsquo;s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign. Carlo Ancelotti&rsquo;s reign as Brazil boss began with a <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/carlo-ancelottis-brazil-debut-begins-with-goalless-stalemate-against-ecuador\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>frustrating 0-0 draw against Ecuador<\/a> last week, in which the five-time world champions managed just two shots on target. Currently sitting fourth with 22 points, Brazil face mounting pressure to return to winning ways, especially with just three matches left in the qualifying campaign.<\/p><p>Their opponents, Paraguay, are enjoying an impressive run under Gustavo Julio Alfaro. A 2-0 win over Uruguay last time out extended their unbeaten streak to nine matches, including five victories. That result saw them leapfrog Brazil in the standings. Paraguay now sit third with 24 points and are edging closer to their first World Cup appearance since 2010.<\/p><p>With direct qualification still up for grabs, this clash could have major implications. Brazil will look to get their groove back at home, but Paraguay&rsquo;s defensive discipline and recent form suggest this encounter may be anything but straightforward.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"pt\" dir=\"ltr\">&Uacute;LTIMOS AJUSTES! &#127919;&#127463;&#127479;<br><br>A Sele&ccedil;&atilde;o Brasileira realizou o &uacute;ltimo treino antes de enfrentar o Paraguai nesta ter&ccedil;a-feira (10), &agrave;s 21:30h, na Neo Qu&iacute;mica Arena, em S&atilde;o Paulo.<br><br>Vamos juntos, VAMOS BRASIL! &#128154;&#128155;<br><br>&#127909; Joilson Marcone \/ Lesley Ribeiro \/ CBF TV <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7pm9FErXkM\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/7pm9FErXkM<\/a><\/p>&mdash; CBF Futebol (@CBF_Futebol) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CBF_Futebol\/status\/1932230824604184681?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 10, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brazil Injury News<\/h2><p>Carlo Ancelotti is set to make a few tweaks to his Brazil XI for Tuesday&rsquo;s vital clash with Paraguay.
