Brazil vs Tunisia Prediction 18 November 2025
🔊 Carlo Ancelotti and his star-studded squad continue to fine-tune their combinations ahead of the upcoming World Cup. Brazil are set for another friendly match, this time against Tunisia. The clash with African teams continues. Our editorial team offers their insightful prediction for this encounter.
Head-to-Head
📊 There have been no head-to-head encounters between the opponents over the past three years.
Head-to-head statistics Brazil - Tunisia
Brazil Team Overview
🟢 The team played three friendly matches following their World Cup qualification campaign. These games offer food for thought: there were both emphatic victories and surprising defeats. It seems like Brazil are playing at half throttle. First, they thrashed South Korea (5-0), but then suffered an unexpected loss to Japan (2-3), despite leading 2-0 during the match.
🟡 November arrived, bringing a match against Senegal (2-0). What stands out in this game is that Brazil eased off after scoring twice in the first half, opting to control the ball rather than push forward. Senegal actually surpassed them in possession, although they posed little threat to the goal. Brazil, on the other hand, barely exceeded an xG of 1.5, which is more of an average performance. It's also concerning that we're discussing their full-strength lineup, with all the key players available.

Tunisia Team Overview
🔴 This match represents a crucial and intriguing stage for Tunisia. Testing their mettle against top-tier opposition is certainly beneficial. The team does have its flaws: players can become shaky when facing a well-organized opponent. They need to address this aspect.
⚪️ The qualification campaign concluded for the national team in October, and by November, they managed to play two friendly matches. First, they drew 1-1 with Mauritania using their second string, followed by a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Jordan. Conceding two goals is concerning, but it's worth noting that at 1-2, Tunisia capitalized on their numerical advantage (due to the opponent's red card) to secure a comeback win. Achieving a bit more balance will ensure their World Cup readiness reaches the desired level.

Editorial Prediction
Brazil seem to be holding back from playing at full throttle, so it's likely we'll witness another match in low gear. Expecting more than two goals from Carlo Ancelotti's squad might be overly optimistic. As for Tunisia, it looks like they're in for a tough challenge. Scoring against Jordan is one thing, but facing Brazil, who effortlessly shut down Senegal, is a different story entirely. The prospect of the underdog scoring remains questionable. Let's go with under 3.5 goals total. This seems like a reasonable choice for the match. We'll predict a 2-0 victory for Brazil.
