It is now or never for Bolivia in their quest for a place in the 2026 FIFA World Cup as they take on Brazil in their final qualifying game at the Estadio Municipal El Alto on Tuesday. Carlo Ancelotti’s men head into the midweek clash unbeaten in their last seven games against the home side and will be looking to extend this 16-year run.

Bolivia dropped three huge points in their quest for a place in the World Cup at the weekend, when they fell to a 3-0 defeat against Colombia at the Estadio Metropolitano.

Prior to that, Oscar Villegas’ side snapped their run of six consecutive games without a win with a much-needed 2-0 victory over Chile on home turf to keep their qualification hopes alive.

Bolivia have picked up 17 points from their 17 qualifying matches so far to sit eighth in the group standings, one point behind seventh-placed Venezuela, who occupy the playoff spot heading into Tuesday’s group finale.

Brazil, on the other hand, showed their class once again as they cruised to a 3-0 victory over Chile when the two nations met at the Estadio Maracana last Saturday.

Ancelotti’s men have now gone unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches, picking up five wins and three draws since a 1-0 loss against Paraguay in September 2024.

Brazil have already guaranteed their spot in the World Cup next year as they sit second in the qualifying table with 28 points from 17 matches, 10 points behind first-placed Argentina and one point above third-placed Uruguay.
