Brazil vs Chile: Numbers you need to know before their Copa America 2021 encounter

Neymar is in excellent form

Neymar has become Brazil's talisman in recent years and is on the brink of making history with the Selecao. Pele's longstanding record of 77 goals with the national team is under threat at the moment with Neymar currently at the 68-goal mark. The PSG forward is unlikely to achieve the feat this month but his skills certainly ensure that a stunning miracle cannot be ruled out.

Neymar has already broken one of Pele's records in Copa America 2021 and registered his 48th assist for Brazil with a neat pass to set up Casemiro's late winner against Colombia. The former Barcelona forward has not scored against Chile in nearly eight years and has a point to prove in this match.

Brazil are on an impressive unbeaten streak at the moment and are undefeated in their last 11 matches. The Selecao have won 10 of these 11 games with the only draw coming against Ecuador earlier this week.

Chile have managed only one victory in their last 14 games against Brazil and have conceded 41 goals in these matches. La Roja's recent history against Brazil has been difficult and the visitors have a point to prove in this fixture.
