Bolivia vs Brazil

, KO: 00:30 , Estadio Municipal El Alto
Brazil

Brazil will look to make it three wins on the bounce when they travel to Bolivia for a World Cup qualifier in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

After kicking off his tenure as Brazil boss with a 0-0 draw away at Ecuador, Carlo Ancelotti has since steered his side to back-to-back victories over Paraguay and Chile.

The first of those two triumphs saw the Selecao stamp their ticket to next summer's showpiece.

That means Brazil have nothing other than pride to play for ahead of their final qualifier with Bolivia this midweek.

As for the visitors, they need to better Venezuela's result to have any chance of securing a place in the inter-confederation play-offs.

Oscar Villegas and his side's preparations for this make-or-break clash were far from ideal, falling to a 3-0 loss at Colombia last time out, in a game that brought up my Bet Builder.

How the bookies view it: Bolivia set for heartbreak

The bookies odds suggest that Bolivia will fall short in their bid to topple Brazil, with a home win trading at 15/2 on Boylesports while an all square affair at the Estadio Municipal El Alto is an unfancied 5/2 with the same firm.

While this is nothing more than a dead-rubber for Brazil, the star-studded visitors are 11/10 favourites with Boylesports to emerge from this contest victorious.

Head to head: Brazil tend to boss it

Brazil have triumphed in a whopping 24 of the overall 33 meetings between the two nations, including each of the last four. The Selecao stormed to a 5-1 victory in the reverse meeting between the pair during the current qualifying campaign.

Players to watch: Miguel to make his mark?

Having hit six goals across his 11 appearances for Bolivia during the current qualifying campaign, Miguel Terceros looks overpriced for an anytime strike here at 5/2 on Bet365.

With four goals and one assist across his last five appearances in World Cup qualifying, Raphinha offers some value in the anytime goalscorer market at 23/10 on PaddyPower.

Predicted line-ups

Bolivia will be unable to call upon the services of injured midfielder Ramiro Vaca, however Lucas Chaves is back in contention after serving a suspension against Colombia last week.

Real Madrid trio Eder Militao, Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior were all given the current international window off by Brazil boss Ancelotti, while Matheus Cunha is missing through injury.

Bolivia: Viscarra; Medina, Haquin, Morales, Fernandez; E Vaca, Matheus, Cuellar; Paniagua, Fernandez, Terceros

Brazil: Alisson; Vanderson, Marquinhos, Gabriel, Henrique; Guimaraes, Casemiro; Raphinha, Joao Pedro, Estevao; Richarlison

Anything else catch the eye?

There is plenty on the line for Bolivia here, so over 3.5 match cards looks well worthy of support at 5/6 on Bet365,

There were two red cards and four yellow cards flashed during Bolivia’s last home game with Venezuela.

Given that three of Bolivia's last qualifiers at home have featured under 2.5 strikes, the 9/10 on Bet365 for this curtain-closer to produce under 2.75 Asian goals also holds plenty of appeal.
