- Attackers: Vinícius Júnior, Raphinha, Matheus Cunha, Igor Thiago, Endrick, Rodrygo (or others called up)
Carlo Ancelotti should maintain the base of his debut, with Vinícius Júnior as his main weapon. Endrick, who has been shining in training, is one of the names most talked about by the fans, who demand his entry to give speed and finishing to the attack. Without Neymar, injured in his calf, the attack depends on the creativity of the attacking trio.
