This time around the Canarinho are determined to make up for the failure by taking home the trophy from Russia. Brazil manager Tite has one of the strongest teams in his hands and has the capability to lead the team to glory.
A solid defence, a top midfield, and a terrific attack. Brazil has everything that is required to win the World Cup. Neymar will be the key man for the Selecao and the PSG man will be supported by the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Willian and Douglas Costa in attack.
The midfield trio of Casemiro, Fernandinho and Paulinho will tough to beat. While Thiago Silva, Marquinho, Marcelo and Danilo will form the defence. Roma's Allison, who is wanted by Real Madrid and Liverpool, will be Brazil's trusted custodian.
Canarinho has a solid 23-man squad that they can even name two separate strong starting elevens with it. The 2018 World Cup belongs to Brazil.
