The Spain national football team will host Brazil in a high-profile international friendly at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid, Spain.

The Spain vs Brazil football friendly will start at 2:00 AM Indian Standard Time (IST) on Wednesday, March 27. Live streaming and telecast of the match will be available in India.

Under head coach Luis de la Fuente, Spain will aim to bounce back after they were beaten Columbia 0-1 at the London Stadium last week.

Right-back Daniel Munoz netted the match-winning goal for Colombia in the 61st minute to end Spain’s eight-match winning streak.

On the other hand, the Brazil national football team will be brimming with confidence after they pipped a star-studded England side 1-0 at the iconic Wembley Stadium.

Endrick, the 17-year-old Brazilian wonderkid, became the youngest senior international goalscorer at Wembley after he scored the solitary goal in the 80th minute of the game.

Ahead of the marquee clash, the hosts are expected to make wholesale changes to their starting XI.

The likes of Unai Simon, Dani Carvajal, Robin Le Normand, Fabian Ruiz, Rodri and Dani Olmo are expected to start against Brazil.

Similarly, the Dorival Junior-coached Brazil could make a few changes to the side that won at Wembley.

Bremer, Douglas Luiz and Pepe Aquino could feature in the starting XI against a strong Spanish outfit.

In the absence of regular goalkeepers Ederson and Alisson Becker due to injuries,  Bento is expected to retain his place between the sticks.

Real Madrid’s star forwards Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo could only feature in the first half due to workload management.

Spain vs Brazil football head-to-head

Brazil hold a superior head-to-head record against Spain in international football. The five-time FIFA World Cup champions have won five of the nine matches that they have played against Spain so far. La Roja have registered just two victories while as many as two matches have ended in draws.

The last time these two sides met, Brazil beat Spain 3-0 in the FIFA Confederations Cup final in June 2013.
