The game will take place at Stadium 974 - so named because it is made out of the same number of shipping containersBrazil vs. South Korea team newsTite will make significant changes to his line up for the tie with South Korea, as the tournament proper gets underway. The first two games showed that he has his settled team that he backs - even if he was forced into rejigging his attack because of the injury suffered by Neymar. Team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said after the loss to Cameroon that there remained 'possibilities' the country's talisman could feature against South Korea. Should Neymar be fit, a return to the team that began the game against Serbia could be expected.
A 2-0 win against Serbia and a 1-0 victory against Switzerland saw them into the knockouts with a game to spare. In what may well have been his last World Cup game, Vincent Aboubakar condemned the Selecao to a narrow defeat. It didn’t knock Brazil out of top spot, however, so they face a last-16 tie against South Korea rather than one against Portugal. As for South Korea, they were involved in one of the most tense endings to a 2022 World Cup match. They managed to beat Portugal and hold off Uruguay to ensure that Luis Suarez and co would fall at the first hurdle. They left themselves needing to win against Fernando Santos’ side after a draw with Uruguay and a 3-2 defeat to Ghana in their other games.
Those hoping to watch the match in Brazil will have to tune in at 4pm (BRT) while it will kick off at 4am in South Korea. Team newsIn the big team news, Neymar is looking likely to return to the Brazil starting XI for the last-16 clash. He has been back in training in the last couple of days and Tite is hoping to have his main man back for the entirety of the knockout stage, however long that might last. Tite is poised to recall a number of players after ringing the changes for the unlikely defeat by Cameroon.
Brazil will have everything crossed for the return of Neymar - particularly after the injury to Gabriel Jesus Gabriel Jesus will play no further part at the World Cup due to a knee injury suffered against CameroonBrazil, however, have been rocked by the news that Gabriel Jesus's World Cup dream is over after suffering a knee injury in the loss to Cameroon on Friday. It was reported that sources close to the player had confirmed the news. South Korea will be thankful for the return of Wolves' Hwang Hee-chan, making his first appearance at the World Cup - and his first showing since November 9 - and scoring the decisive goal.

South Korea: Cho Gue-sung, Jung Woo-young, Kim Young-gwon, Lee Kang-in, Hwang Hee-chan. What’s at stake? A place in the quarter-final. It feels like anything less than a place in the final, perhaps even winning the World Cup, will not be enough for the people of Brazil.
They are desperate for a record-extending sixth title and to have any chance of doing that, they will have to overcome South Korea here. This is only the third time South Korea have made it beyond the group stage. They reached the semi-final when they hosted the tournament in 2002 while it was defeat at this stage in South Africa 12 years ago.
Lee Kang-in and Kim Young-gwon were withdrawn in the last match but they should be fit to start. Predicted line-upsBrazil (4-2-3-1): Alisson, Militao, Marquinhos, Silva, Danilo; Casemiro, Paqueta; Raphinha, Neymar, Vinicius; Richarlison. South Korea (4-2-3-1): Kim Seung-gyu, Kim Moon-hwan, Kim Min-jae, Kim Young-gwon, Kim Jin-su; Hwang In-beom, Jung Woo-young; Hwang Hee-chan, Lee Kang-in, Son Heung-min, Cho Gue-sung. The story so farBrazil got their business done early in Group G so there was little riding on their final group game against Cameroon.

In that match, Tite lost a couple of his players for the remainder of the tournament as Gabriel Jesus and Alex Telles picked up knee injuries. Alex Sandro is also nursing an injury so Danilo — who sustained an ankle injury in the first game of the tournament — could be forced onto the opposite flank that he is used to.

Kim Min-jae missed the win against Portugal as he was being rested in the hope that his team mates would do enough to make it into the knockouts. Hwang Hee-chan came off the bench to prove his hamstring injury was a thing off the past as he fired South Korea into the last-16.
