Brazil vs Colombia Preview & Picks

Brazil and Colombia are backed to share the points in this group game.

The Colombians have been on a consistent run of form for several months, while the Brazilians have underwhelmed in recent times.

  • 3 of the last 6 meetings have ended in a draw
  • Colombia are unbeaten in their last 25 games
  • Brazil have failed to win 7 of their last 10 games
  • Both teams have scored in 4 of Brazil's last 5 games
  • Colombia have scored 16 goals in their last 5 games

Head To Head

  • Brazil lead the all-time series 13-2 with 8 draws
  • Colombia won 2-1 when the two teams last met in November 2023

Brazil Form

Brazil opened the tournament with a disappointing goalless draw against Costa Rica.

Despite dominating for much of the 90 minutes, the Selecao could not find a breakthrough against the stubborn underdogs. 

Dorival Junior’s side bounced back in the second game though, earning a commanding 4-1 victory against Paraguay as Vinicius Junior scored a brace and both Savinho and Lucas Paqueta got on the scoresheet.

Brazil had a disappointing start to the World Cup 2026 qualifiers, losing their last three games in South America against Uruguay 2-0, Colombia 2-1 and Argentina 1-0 in late 2023. 

Colombia Form

Colombia extended their winning run to 10 games straight with a convincing 3-0 victory against Costa Rica on Sunday night.

Luis Diaz broke the deadlock in the first half while Davinson Sanchez and Jhon Cordoba finished the job later. 

That was the second straight win for Los Cafeteros, previously beating Paraguay 2-1, goals from Daniel Muñoz and Jefferson Lerma ensured a winning start to their Copa America 2024 campaign. 

Colombia also looked fantastic in their warm up encounters just before the tournament, crushing the United States 5-1, followed by a 3-0 victory against Bolivia.

Jhon Arias appeared on the scoresheet on both occasions for the Colombians.

Verdict

Colombia caused Brazil plenty of problems in World Cup qualifying and are unbeaten since February 2022.

I am expecting a close match to end in a draw in California, with both teams to score also predicted.
