World Cup
Brazil – Bolivia. Prediction and announcement for the 2026 World Cup qualifying match
On September 9, Estadio Olimpico do Para will host the 2026 World Cup 1st round qualifying match, where the Brazilian national team will face the Bolivia national team. The start of the fight is scheduled for 03:45 Kiev time.
Brazil
The team failed to win the world championship on Russian fields in 2018 under Tite, and then lost the Copa America final at home to Argentina. But they believed in this mentor unshakably and the Selecao went to Qatar for the long-awaited Nike. The disappointment became even more evident when the team, which had left the group early and was the favorite with a score of 4-1 in the first round of the play-offs, lost to the Croatians on penalties; The quarter-finals again became an obstacle for them. They looked for a new mentor for a long time and solved the problem in an extraordinary way. Ancelotti will take over in a year, but for now he is busy acting. It will be Fernando Diniz from Fluminense. In his opinion, the results are contradictory: they beat Guinea 4-1 in June, but lost 2-4 to Senegal in Lisbon. It should also be noted that there will no longer be many veterans: Thiago Silva, Gabriel Jesus, Fred, Paqueta and other European stars.
Bolivia
The national team is considered one of the weak teams in South American football. And in general, he confirmed his condition in the last loop, finishing it in the penultimate position. But we also managed to get 16 points; Quite a lot for such a team. But at the end of last autumn, a new mentor emerged here: Gustavo Costas. For the 60-year-old veteran, this is his first experience working with national teams rather than clubs. The Greens did not experience any transformation under his administration. In 2023, only Saudi Arabia managed to win, and everything ended in a draw with Chile. The remaining opponents, Uzbekistan, Ecuador and even Panama, lost control matches.
Statistics of personal meetings
In 2017, Bolivia managed to reduce their home game to a goalless draw. But all the other 5 fights remained as favorites.
To guess
Bettors are not expecting the specter of a fight in this pair. However, since this is only the 1st round, you can bet on under 4.5 goals (odds: 1.8).
