How to watch Brazil vs. Venezuela: CONMEBOL 2026 World Cup ...

In the upcoming round of CONMEBOL 2026 World Cup qualifiers, could there be some magic on the horizon?

Brazil will hope things stay according to plan. But don’t count out Venezuela as the two countries are set to face off.

During the opening round of South American qualifying in September, Brazil pulled off two wins — but not without some late work needing to be done.

Brazil, the No. 3 team in FIFA’s rankings, cruised to a 5-1 win against Bolivia, with Neymar and Rodrygo both scoring twice.

But on matchday two, Peru made it tough on Brazil, who needed a 90th-minute winner from Marquinhos in a 1-0 victory.

If Venezuela manages to hang tight, could they be the side to pull out a result?

After falling against Colombia in their qualifying opener, Venezuela had some late magic of their own against Paraguay. Salomon Rondon buried a 93rd-minute penalty to give La Vinotinto a 1-0 win.
