After yet another triumph at the Copa America, Brazil will hope that result will finally translate into a positive result at this summer's World Cup. The South American giants are just one of seven teams to have taken part at every single World Cup to date, but have never gotten their hands on the coveted prize.
In fact, only Japan, in 2011, were able to break the stranglehold that CONCACAF and UEFA have on the World Cup trophy, with the USWNT winning four of the eight prior competitions. Brazil will hope that long wait for a World Cup title will end this summer, and they will certainly be fancying their chances at kicking off their current campaign on a good foot. For starters, they have never lost a World Cup opener, with eight wins from their past eight tournaments, and will be facing a team who have never featured at a World Cup prior to this year's event.
With Jamaica shockingly holding France to a historic draw, Brazil can take advantage of France's slip-up to move into top spot in Group F if they can, as many expect, beat debutant side Panama on Monday. The minnows come into this match having suffered two heavy back to back defeats in their World Cup warm-up friendlies as they were thrashed 7-0 by Spain and 5-0 by Japan, so their confidence will not exactly be sky-high ahead of this tough test.
