Brazil’s teenage prodigy Endrick will replace Vinicius Jr, who is suspended for accumulating yellow cards.
Brazil coach Dorival Junior added he did not want the Uruguay game to be seen as a defining moment, but acknowledged it was a great South American classic.
“It will be an important game for Brazil and for Uruguay too. It is a team that deserves all of our respect and I have no doubt that they will have problems against our team. These are teams that know and respect each other and we will have everything to play a great match,” Dorival said.
Uruguay coach Marcelo Bielsa has urged his side to come out determined to gain the upper hand.

La Celeste won all three of their group matches and scored eight goals to finish top of Group C. They will be hoping to progress to the semifinals and looking to implement Bielsa’s high-pressing attacking style against the Brazilians.
The coach also said that Vinicius Jr’s absence from the Brazil team won’t be a factor in their strategy, and described him as the best winger in the world.
“Personally, I don’t think his absence will affect us. Brazil is a country that has a lot of wingers at both ends of the pitch at the moment, and they play in big teams all over the world. Brazil’s replacement, Endrick, will not be easy to neutralise in Vinicius’ absence.”
