Brazil come into this after a 1-1 away draw vs Ecuador in their previous qualifier match on Thursday.
Casemiro’s strike was cancelled out by Torres to ensure a share of the spoils, leaving Brazil winless in their last 2 matches.
Having already qualified, Brazil aims to keep their form on-going and hope to finish as table toppers.
On the other hand, Paraguay’s slim hopes of qualification were dented as they lost 1-0 at home to Uruguay.
Suarez scored the winner for the visitors to inflict a 6th defeat of the campaign on Paraguay.
The loss leaves them in the perilous 9th place with 13 points from 15 matches having lost 4 of their last 5 matches.
Both sides last met in the reverse leg of the qualifiers in 2021, where Brazil won 2-0 due to Neymar and Paquetá’s goals.
