Brazil will conclude their 2025 schedule with two high-profile friendlies in Europe, facing Senegal on 15 November at Emirates Stadium in London and Tunisia on 18 November in Lille, France, the Brazilian FA (CBF) confirmed.
The matches are part of coach Carlo Ancelotti’s World Cup preparations, giving the five-time champions more exposure to African opponents ahead of the 2026 World Cup in North America.
Following a mixed October window — a 5-0 win over South Korea and a surprise defeat to Japan — Brazil aims to test its adaptability against different playing styles.
Senegal, featuring stars like Sadio Mané and Kalidou Koulibaly, famously beat Brazil 4-2 in Lisbon two years ago, while Tunisia, already qualified for the 2026 tournament, will provide a disciplined defensive challenge.
The CBF says November’s games will help finalise tactical assessments before a March 2026 series against top European nations, likely in the United States, as Brazil edges closer to naming its final World Cup squad.
