Although a number of regulars are missing from Tite's squad for the match in the King Abdullah Sports City stadium, PSG star Neymar will join forces with the Liverpool and Manchester City strikers in an impressive front three.
Argentina, however, are without their star man Lionel Messi, who is believed to have asked to take some time off from international duty following the last-16 elimination at the World Cup in Russia.
They are boosted by the likes of Manchester United goalkeeper Sergio Romero and Nicolas Otamendi, who will attempt to tame club team-mate Jesus.
Brazil: Alisson, Danilo, Marquinhos, Miranda, Filipe Luis, Casemiro, Arthur, Coutinho, Neymar, Firmino, Jesus
Argentina: Romero, Saravia, Otamendi, Pezzella, Tagliafico, Parades, Battaglia, Lo Celso, Dybala, Icardi, Correa
