Brazil and Chile in fight for quarter final place

The last 16 round of the World Cup kicks off this evening with hosts Brazil facing Chile. Barça are supplying four payers for the match, with  Neymar Jr and Dani Alves set to start for Brazil and Alexis Sánchez and Claudio Bravo  for Chile.

Neymar Jr and Alves ever present

Luis Felipe Scolari  seems to be clear on both the style he wants from his team and who will be in his starting XI, with Neymar Jr and Dani Alves ever present so far. Neymar is also the tournament’s leading scorer with four goals in three games, tied with Leo Messi and Thomas Müller and will be the main weapon against a tenacious Chile team, who have already helped dump Spain out of the competition.

Sanchez and Bravo lead Chile threat

Alexis Sánchez leads the Chilean attack, whilst new Barça signing and  Chile captain Claudio Bravo impressed in the group stages and will be looking to keep Neymar and company out this evening and help knock out the hosts and pre-tournament favourites.
