Round of 16: Brazil v Chile

Venue: Estadio Mineirao, Belo Horizonte

Kick-off: 5pm (1pm, Brazil time)

Odds: Brazil 4/7, Draw 11/4, Chile 5/1

Referee: Howard Webb (England)

Managers:

Luiz Felipe Scolari (Brazil)
Jorge Sampaoli (Argentina)

Team news: David Luiz is nursing a slight back problem suffered in training but he is expected to be fit.

Fernandinho is pushing for a starting role in midfield, although Luiz Felipe Scolari said earlier in the week that he has 'blind faith' in Paulinho.

Chile defender Gary Medel is a doubt with a muscle strain but, if fit, will keep his place in a full-strength side.

Key midfielder Arturo Vidal will return after being rested for the group stage defeat against the Dutch.

Vidal, Charles Aranguiz, Francisco Silva and Eugenio Mena are all one booking from a ban, along with Brazil quartet Thiago Silva, Ramires, Neymar and Luiz Gustavo.
