Preview
Brazil come into this after a goalless draw against Colombia away from home on Sunday.
This was the first time Brazil did not score in the qualification campaign which resulted in dropped points.
However, Brazil is soaring above the rest of the chasing pack and remain table toppers with 28 points from 10 matches.
On the other hand, Uruguay lost 3-0 to Argentina away in their previous and eye a return to winning ways.
Goals from Messi, De Paul and Martinez ensured a first defeat since the Copa America exit in July.
Yet, Uruguay is in a decent position as far as qualification is concerned with 16 points from 11 matches placed 4th.
This is expected to be an engaging contest given both sides wanting plenty from this fixture.
Both sides last met in the World Cup Qualifiers in 2020 where Brazil beat Uruguay 2-0 away.
