The Brazilian national team wraps up the group stage of the 2026 World Cup against Scotland in Miami, having secured first place in Group C. After a 1-1 draw with Morocco in their opener and a 3-0 victory over Haiti—with two goals from Matheus Cunha and one from Vinícius Júnior—Carlo Ancelotti’s team has reached four points. To secure first place, they need only match or exceed Morocco’s result against Haiti.
On the other side, Scotland is experiencing a historic moment. Their 1-0 victory over Haiti, with a goal by John McGinn, was followed by a 1-0 loss to Morocco, leaving the Scots with three points. They are seeking to qualify for the knockout stage of a World Cup for the first time in the country’s history, and, in practice, any positive result will secure their spot.
Brazil has a key player out: Raphinha, with a muscle injury in his right thigh, is sidelined and continues to receive treatment with the team. Neymar, having recovered from his calf injury, has returned to training and is available, but is not expected to start. Meanwhile, Steve Clarke’s Scotland arrives in Miami at virtually full strength, with no new absences due to injury or suspension.
