Paraguay steps into this match with a pressing need for a victory. Their recent encounter with Chile concluded in a goalless draw (0-0), and while they currently hold the 7th position, which grants them a place in the International playoff, their ultimate goal is to secure direct qualification to the forthcoming World Cup.



On the other hand, Colombia is experiencing a fantastic moment. The Cafetaleros staged a comeback, defeating Brazil 2-1 in Matchday 5. Another victory, coupled with losses from Argentina and Uruguay, could potentially propel them to the top of the Qualifiers.

Colombia won against big favorite Brazil 2-1 in what was a big upset during Matchday 5, they played at home and Luis Diaz scored both goals to win the game.



<h2>Paraguay lineup</h2>



The game is expected to be a tactical battleground, with both teams employing their respective strengths. Paraguay’s defensive solidity will be put to the test against Colombia’s attacking prowess.



Paraguay’s defensive resilience could frustrate Colombia’s attacking ambitions. The Paraguayans have scored only one goal during 5 games played, they must improve their offense if they want to win this game. The squad’s only goal so far was scored by Antonio Sanabria.



This is Paraguay’s lineup for this game: Carlos Coronel, Juan Caceres, Gustavo Gomez, Omar Alderete, Matias Espinoza, Matias Rojas, Mathias Villasanti, Andres Cubas, Ramon Sosa, Antonio Sanabria, Adam Bareiro.



<h2>Colombia lineup</h2>



Colombia, on the other hand, has experienced a resurgence under the leadership of their new manager, Néstor Lorenzo. The Cafeteros, currently occupying 3rd place in the qualifiers with 9 points.



The Colombians have a perfect record in 2023 with five wins and five draws, not all the results were for the Conmebol Qualifiers but also for some international friendlies and the 2023 Kirin Challenge Cup.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/luis-diaz" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Luis Diaz</a> had an outstanding night against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazil</a>. The Liverpool left winger sealed <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Colombia’s</a> victory against the Canarinha by scoring two late goals towards the end of the game.



In Matchday 5 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Colombia hosted Brazil. It was a challenging game for the home team as the Canarinha were eager for a win to climb up the standings.



The match was incredibly exciting. Brazil took the lead thanks to Gabriel Martinelli, but Colombia remained resilient, scoring two goals late in the game to secure a victorious result on their home turf.



<h2>Watch: Luis Diaz scores twice to give Colombia the victory against Brazil</h2>



Luis Diaz recently faced what might be the toughest month of his life. His parents were kidnapped in Colombia, with his mother released swiftly, but his father was held captive for 12 agonizing days.



It’s surprising how quickly the winger returned to the field, playing for both Liverpool and his country. After scoring for his club and dedicating the goal to his father, he’s now repeated the feat with Colombia.



During Matchday 5 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Brazil, Luis Diaz’s two goals towards the end of the game secured a significant victory for Colombia on home soil.



His father, present in the stands, was captured on camera shedding tears of joy witnessing his son’s goals. Despite Brazil taking the lead in the 4th minute, they surprisingly lost their advantage, succumbing to defeat on the road due to Diaz’s exceptional performance.

Worrying news has arrived in Spain today. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/vinicius-jr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Vinicius Jr.</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Real Madrid’s</a> winger, had to leave the game between <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazil</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Colombia</a> early due to a non-contact injury he sustained at the beginning of the match.



Vinicius Jr. has indeed emerged as a significant star in Real Madrid’s squad. The Brazilian winger’s recent improvements have elevated his status, and it appears that his team’s aspirations hinge on his contributions.



In Neymar’s absence, Vinicius Jr. has assumed another role for Brazil. However, Vini might also face some time off due to an injury he sustained during Matchday 5 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.



<h2>VIDEO: Vinicius Jr. exits the Colombia vs Brazil game due to injury</h2>



An unfortunate situation unfolded for Brazil and Vinicius Jr. In Matchday 5 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the winger had to exit due to an injury, and images indicate a severe outcome.



At the 27th minute, the forward fell to the ground in clear pain. He suffered a non-contact injury and, according to images, it seems lie it would be near the left thigh.

<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Malísimas noticias desde Colombia, ya que parece que Vinícius Júnior tiene una lesión muscular en su pierna izquierda.

After the medical tests that Vinicius Jr went trhough today, it was determined that he won’t be able to continue with Brazil for Matchday 6 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the next World Cup.



According to Fabrizio Romano, the winger will return to Madrid today for medical attention from his club. As a result, Vini Jr. won’t be available to play in Matchday 6 for Brazil against Argentina.



Tt appears his injury isn’t as severe as his previous one. Real Madrid returns to action on November 26th against Cadiz and will also play in the Champions League against Napoli just three days later, so he still has some time to recover in order to play those games.

Colombia enters Matchday 5 with one victory and three draws. They haven’t suffered a single defeat in these Qualifiers, but those draws have held them back from achieving higher positions in the standings.



On the other hand is Brazil. The five-time World Cup champions have not had the best start of the Qualifiers, with two wins, one draw, and one tough loss against Uruguay in the most recent game.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Colombia </a>winger Juan Guillermo Cuadrado won’t be a part of Nestor Lorenzo’s team for the upcoming FIFA <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/world-cup-qualifiers">World Cup qualifiers</a>, which is obviously a big surprise to most fans, even Colombian ones. 



Unfortunately, the team legend suffered a dislocated shoulder while playing for Italian side Internazionale in their crucial clash vs. Fiorentina, according to an announcement made by the Nerazzuri.



The Colombian veteran left the game early in the second half against Cagliari, following a clash with Nadja Nainggolan. Then, further examination determined that he had endured a second-degree dislocation in his shoulder, thus ruling him out for at least three weeks.



That’s why it wasn’t a surprise to see that the former Juventus star is set to miss the must-win matches vs. Brazil and Paraguay, which is obviously a huge blow to their aspirations.



Following his stint as a perennial starter under Jose Nestor Pekerman, Cuadrado had gotten a lesser role over the past couple of years, mostly because of his age. Even so, he was usually the first substitute off the bench when that was the case.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231115_BUS_85503_Colombia-vs-Chile-1-1024x572.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="Juan Guillermo Cuadrado against Alexis Sanchez" class="wp-image-61184" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Colombia-vs-Chile-1-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Colombia-vs-Chile-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Colombia-vs-Chile-1-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Colombia-vs-Chile-1.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Juan Guillermo Cuadrado against Alexis Sanchez</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Colombia Preview</h2>



The Colombian National Team will face its toughest task yet. They’re set to host Brazil, a team that’s looking to make a statement after failing to be as dominant as usual in this edition of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/conmebol" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CONMEBOL</a> FIFA World Cup qualifiers.



To date, Lozano’s team sits at the fifth spot in the table, trailing neighbor nation Venezuela by one point. They beat Venezuela 1-0 in the first match of the tournament, followed by a 0-0 draw with Chile, a 2-2 draw with Uruguay, and a 0-0 draw with Ecuador.



Brazil, on the other hand, is currently sitting at the third spot in the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup qualifiers. They thrashed Bolivia 5-1 in their first matchup, followed by a narrow 1-0 win over Peru. Then, they couldn’t get past a 1-1 draw with Venezuela, and then lost 2-0 to Uruguay.



Needless to say, the Brazilians will look to make a statement and bounce back in a big way, even though they won’t have superstar striker Neymar on the pitch, as he suffered yet another major injury.



Then, the Colombians will hit the road to face an up-and-coming, promising, yet inexperienced Paraguayan side. The Albirrojos currently sit in the seventh spot of the table with four points after winning one game with one draw and two losses.

Led by Newcastle star Miguel Almirón, the Paraguayans weren’t able to get past a 0-0 draw to Peru, followed by a heartbreaking 0-1 loss to Venezuela. Then, they held on against Argentina but still lost 0-1. They bounced back in a big way to beat Bolivia 1-0, and they’ll face Chile on the road before their matchup vs. Colombia.



The CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup qualifiers are perhaps the toughest on Earth, and these two matches will be the last all teams play in 2023, so they need to make sure to finish the first leg on a high note. Of course, not having a veteran leader like Cuadrado will make it tough, but the Cafeteros have more than enough talent in their ranks to keep the ship afloat.

Matchday 5 of the South American 2026 World Cup Qualifiers has a very interesting match between <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Colombia</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazil</a> today at Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez. Here are the confirmed lineups for this game.



The CONMEBOL Qualifiers for the FIFA World Cup are among the lengthiest in the world. Ten nations fiercely compete against each other in some of the most intense and passionate soccer matches.



It is noteworthy that these Qualifiers will be different. CONMEBOL has been awarded two additional spots for the upcoming World Cup. Therefore, each squad needs to finish among the top six places to advance directly and avoid the International Playoff.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231116#BUS#85763"></div>


<h2>Colombia’s confirmed lineup</h2>



Colombia arrives to this match with six points acquired in four games. The Cafetaleros have won only one of those duels and tied the other three, so it is crucial for them to get the victory at home against Brazil.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231115_BUS_85464_James-Rodriguez-1-1024x576.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="James Rodriguez of Colombia" class="wp-image-76455" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/James-Rodriguez-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/James-Rodriguez-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/James-Rodriguez-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/James-Rodriguez-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/James-Rodriguez-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>James Rodriguez of Colombia</figcaption></figure>



Radamel Falcao Garcia, the legendary striker, hasn’t been called up for these Qualifiers. It is one of the most noticeable absences in this squad, but it seems like Colombia has a very strong roster to fight against the Canarinha.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231115#BUS#85453"></div>


Colombia’s confirmed starting 11: Camilo Vargas; Deiver Machado, Janer Lucimi, Davinson Sanchez, Daniel Muñoz; Matheur Uribe, Kevin Castano, Jorge Carrascal; Luis Diaz, Rafael Santos Borre, and James Rodriguez.



<h2>Brazil’s predicted lineup</h2>



On the flip side, we have Brazil. The five-time World Cup champions are facing challenges in these Qualifiers, but securing a victory on the road against Colombia would inject them with more hope for the rest of them.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231115#BUS#85456"></div>


The most important absence is, undoubtedly, Neymar. The winger suffered a torn ACL during their 2-0 loss against Uruguay, and he will be out for at least ten months.



Brazil’s confirmed starting 11: Alisson; Renan Lodi, Gabriel Magalhaes, Marquinhos, Emerson Royal; Bruno Guimaraes, Andre; Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr., Raphinha, and Gabriel Martinelli.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/conmebol-qualifiers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CONMEBOL Qualifiers</a> for the 2026 FIFA World Cup start again with very attractive matches. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Colombia</a> needs two victories during this International break, but they won’t have Radamel Falcao helping them for the games against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazil</a> and Paraguay.



Qatar 2022 recently concluded, but FIFA is already focusing on the next World Cup. In 2026, Canada, the United States, and Mexico will jointly host the largest international tournament. This marks the first time that the competition is spread across three countries.



Unable to secure a spot for Qatar 2022, Colombia is determined to make a strong push for the upcoming World Cup. The team aims to secure two victories during this international break to improve its position in the Qualifiers.



<h2>Match Preview</h2>



Colombia has had a solid but not outstanding start to the CONMEBOL Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, remaining undefeated after four matches with one win and three draws.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231115#BUS#85456"></div>


With the upcoming World Cup expanding to 48 teams from the previous 32, CONMEBOL now has six and a half qualification spots, a significant increase from the traditional four and a half slots.



As of today, Colombia holds a secured spot in the next World Cup, sitting in 5th place with six points. However, the Cafetaleros aim to climb further in the standings to avoid any surprises as the Qualifiers progress.



The upcoming matches pose significant challenges for Colombia. In Matchday 5, they will face Brazil, who is eager for a win to close in on Argentina. In Matchday 6, they take on Paraguay, currently in 7th place and holding a spot in the International Playoff.



Colombia faces a setback as Radamel Falcao is omitted from the squad for the upcoming matches. His absence sparks speculation about his role in the team’s future and potential participation in the next World Cup.

Despite Radamel Falcao’s presence in the squad during the Qualifiers for Qatar 2022, his experience wasn’t sufficient to guide Colombia to the World Cup as they fell short in their bid for a spot in the tournament.



<h2>Why was Radamel Falcao not called up to face Brazil and Paraguay?</h2>



Colombian sports outlet Caracol reports that Radamel Falcao’s absence from the current roster is attributed to a significant factor—lack of playing time. The striker, who has featured for Rayo Vallecano this season, has been limited to just eight minutes of play.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231115#BUS#85351"></div>


As of now, Rafael Santos Borre has taken the mantle as the primary striker in Nestor Lorenzo’s squad. It seems Falcao won’t secure a spot unless he sees more playing time with Rayo Vallecano.

Why wasn't Radamel Falcao Garcia called up for Colombia to face Brazil and Paraguay?

International soccer is back with an exciting double-fixture in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/world-cup-qualifiers">South American Qualifiers</a>. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a> arrive in the November international break aiming to get back to winning ways, but <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia">Colombia</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> will probably not make things easy. Besides, Casemiro will not take the field this time.



The Manchester United has been on the sidelines since the loss to Uruguay in October due to a knock. The veteran midfielder has already missed four games with the Red Devils, and now he wasn’t even called up by Fernando Diniz.



His absence will certainly mean a huge challenge for the Selecao, who have to see if there’s a reliable replacement for the former Real Madrid star. Fluminense sensation Andre or Newcastle star Bruno Guimaraes will probably fill in his vacancy.



<h2>Injuries hurt Brazil’s squad</h2>



While Casemiro is a significant casualty for these fixtures, he will not be the only notable absence on the Canarinha squad. Apart from the Man Utd star, Brazil will miss the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar</a>, Richarlison, Ederson and Danilo due to injury.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231115_BUS_85456_Neymar-15-1024x576.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Neymar carted off the field in Brazil&apos;s loss to Uruguay" class="wp-image-77039" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/Neymar-15-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/Neymar-15-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/Neymar-15-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/Neymar-15-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/Neymar-15.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Neymar carted off the field in Brazil’s loss to Uruguay</figcaption></figure>



The Al Hilal star went under the knife after suffering a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus in his left knee during his nation’s latest 2-0 loss in Montevideo. Therefore, he’s expected to be on the sidelines for almost eight months.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231113#BUS#84879"></div>


The Tottenham forward, meanwhile will undergo surgery on his pubic bone after claiming he’s been playing through injury for months. As for the Manchester City goalkeeper, he was ruled out due to a foot injury sustained during the draw against Chelsea. Additionally, the Juventus defender has yet to recover from a hamstring strain in his left leg in the October international window.



<h2>Diniz calls up new faces</h2>



In the wake of the winless October break in addition to the number of injuries sustained by its stars, the Brazilian national team squad for the November will have plenty of new faces.



Perhaps the biggest storyline about Diniz’s roster is the presence of Endrick, the 17-year-old gem who will join Real Madrid from Palmeiras in 2024. But the Fluminense manager has also called up players from his club, such as defender Nino and midfielder Andre.


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="655416e9f2b571abd7e4877b" data-title="Will Brazil overcome their stars\&apos; injuries in this window?" data-options="2"></div>


With Ederson injured, Alisson is expected to start between the sticks. Behind him, Brazil will have two local players in Bento (Athletico) and Lucas Perri (Botafogo). Other interesting names are Joao Pedro, who is enjoying a great start to life at Brighton, and Aston Villa sensation Douglas Luiz.



But of course, Brazil’s faces in this window will probably be Real Madrid duo Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli could be another player to watch, though.

Unfortunately for them, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Neymar</a> hasn’t been called for these games.



It has been a year since Argentina lifted the trophy in Qatar 2022. Now, all CONMEBOL nations are actively participating in the Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is set to take place in Canada, the United States, and Mexico.



Brazil dominated the last Qualifiers, but their journey to Qatar 2022 was not what fans expected. Now, they are once again vying for a place in the upcoming World Cup, aiming to secure the top spot in CONMEBOL.



<h2>Match Preview</h2>



The CONMEBOL Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup have been full of surprises. Argentina continues to perform at a top level, leading the qualification, while Brazil has not had the best start.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231113#BUS#84879"></div>


In the initial four games of the Qualifiers, Brazil secured two wins, had one draw, and suffered one loss. They started their journey with an impressive 5-1 triumph over Bolivia but faced a setback with a recent 2-0 defeat against Uruguay.



Colombia currently holds the 5th position in the Qualifiers with six points out of a possible 12. Despite not suffering any losses in the first four games, three consecutive draws have prevented them from securing higher positions.



The Cafetaleros secured their first victory against Venezuela with a final score of 1-0. Nevertheless, they faced challenges against Chile, Uruguay, and Ecuador, ending in draws and sharing points with these three squads.

In their matchup, Brazil has dominated Colombia, remaining undefeated against the Cafetaleros since 2015. However, the Canarinha faces this match with a significant setback—Neymar’s absence.



<h2>What happened to Neymar?</h2>



During their loss to Uruguay in the last International break, Neymar suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in his left knee. Because of this injury, the winger will be out for at least 10 months.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231108#BUS#83766"></div>


His team, Al Hilal, will receive approximately €7.5 million from FIFA as compensation for the injury. However, it appears that it is his nation that needs him the most nowadays.
