The tactical read
Brazil typically set up in 4-3-3 and make their first change around minute 51 - roughly 5 substitutions per game. Expect the first-sub window around then, earlier if they're chasing the game.
Over the last 5 matches, the same shape held up in 3 of them. The quickest hook came at 40' at home to Haiti; the longest wait stretched to 65' away at Scotland.
They've won more than they've lost across these 5 matches (3-1-1) - a manager riding momentum tends to stick with what's working, so don't expect wholesale changes to the plan.
