Lionel Messi’s Argentina eyes breaking Brazil’s historic unbeaten run. Argentina faces Brazil in the World Cup 2026 qualifiers, seeking to break Brazil’s unbeaten streak at the Maracanã.
Their last encounter on this ground was in July 2021, with Argentina securing a 1-0 victory, clinching the Copa America. However, Brazil holds a historical record of unbeaten home qualifying matches, detailed by Argentina’s marketing registrado site.
The five-time world champions, missing the injured Neymar and recently troubled by Vinicius Junior’s injury, have played 64 qualifiers, tallying 51 wins and 13 draws.
Yet, in their recent match in Brazil, Seleção faced an unexpected setback, drawing for the first time against Venezuela, striving to qualify for the upcoming World Cup. The visitors leveled 1-1 at the end of the match at Arena Pantanal in Cuiabá.
