September 5, 2015 Brazil 1-0 Costa Rica International Friendly

October 7, 2011 Costa Rica 0-1 Brazil International Friendly

July 11, 2004 Brazil 4-2 Costa Rica Copa America

June 13, 2002 Costa Rica 2-5 Brazil FIFA World Cup

It's Vinicius Junior's time to shine. With Neymar out of the 2024 Copa America with injury, it's Vinicius' chance to make a name for himself with Brazil's national team. the Real Madrid superstar. can start the tournament with a bang on Monday, June 24 as Brazil takes on Costa Rica at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

For fans who haven't watch Brazil since the 2022 World Cup, there are a few changes. Casemiro and Richarlison have been left out of the squad, Thiago Silva has retired from international football and Brazil is almost playing with a false nine as Rodrygo has started matches up top before floating out wide or into midfield.

Costa Rica are going through a generational change, with the majority of the team that qualified for the 2014 and 2018 World Cups out of the team. There are still a few returnees, including former Arsenal winger Joel Campbell, but losing goalkeeper and captain Kaylor Navas before the tournament to international retirement was a big blow.

It's a chance for a new generation of stars to make a name for themselves, with teenagers Josimar Alcocer and Warren Madrigal ones to watch.

Brazil vs. Costa Rica lineups & team news

The big absentee for Brazil at this tournament is Neymar, who has not recovered sufficiently from an ACL injury. However, they will also be missing experienced midfielder Casemiro, who was overlooked for the squad, and goalkeeper Ederson, who sustained a fractured eye socket in Manchester City's win over Tottenham last month.

Dorival Jr. favored a 4-3-3 formation in the March friendlies against England and Spain, so it seems likely he will persist with that system.

Teen sensation Endrick is poised to start on the bench, with Barcelona winger Raphinha completing the front three, while Wolves' Joao Gomes could be a surprise starter ahead of Douglas Luiz and Atalanta's Ederson in midfield.

Brazil projected starting lineup (4-3-3): Alisson (GK) — Danilo, Marquinhos, Militao, Wendell — Joao Gomes, Bruno Guimaraes, Lucas Paqueta — Raphinha, Rodrygo, Vinicius

Gustavo Alfaro, on the other hand, is likely to take a defensive approach against the South American giants and could set up his team in a conservative 4-3-2-1 formation.

Costa Rica projected starting lineup (4-4-2): Sequeira; Cascante, Vargas, Calvo; Quiros, Galo, Aguilera, Mora; Campbell, Zamora; Contre.

Brazil vs Costa Rica prediction

Score prediction: Brazil 2-0 Costa Rica

With a new coach and some veterans left behind (Neymar, Casemiro, Ederson), it's time for Brazil's next crop of stars to step up and prove it in a major international competition. Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo have won multiple titles for Real Madrid, but now it's their chance to show it in the yellow and green of Brazil.

We saw Vinicius Jr. in great form in Brazil's June international friendlies, and there's no reason to think it won't continue here. Facing a Costa Rica team in transition, Brazil should be able to easily take care of business as it opens the Copa America campaign.

Brazil hope to demonstrate their credentials as one of the favorites to win the Copa America on Monday when they face Costa Rica in their opening match of the tournament Southern California.

This match will serve as a strong opportunity for the nine-time Copa America champions to set the tone since it could be one of the more lopsided results of the group stage. Brazil arrive in the U.S. with high-profile attacking talent led by Vinicius Junior, who could help them exploit Costa Rica's weaknesses considering their poor recent record against top-tier teams.

Here's what you need to know before tuning in.

How to watch and odds

Odds: Brazil -700; Draw +700; Costa Rica +1600

Group D outlook

In a group that also includes Colombia and Paraguay, Brazil are easily the oddsmakers' favorites to finish first and chart a path to the final in Miami Gardens on July 14. The five-time World Cup winners are expected to live up to the billing, especially in matches against Paraguay and Costa Rica, who seem most likely to exit the tournament after wrapping up the group stage. Most eyes will be on the final match in Group D, which will see Brazil and Colombia likely duke it out for first place in the group.

Storylines

Brazil: Things have not exactly been straightforward for Dorival Junior's side in the last year, but they have found a way to correct course and enter the Copa America with some optimism around their chances. Brazil finished 2023 with a three-match losing streak and in sixth place in CONMEBOL's 10-team World Cup qualifying table, but a win over England in March and going undefeated since means a Neymar-less team has a lot to offer. Vinicius Junior is the obvious standout after winning another UEFA Champions League title with Real Madrid, but 17-year-old Endrick has also impressed with three goals in Brazil's last four games.

Costa Rica: With the golden generation behind them, a group chiefly made up of players in the domestic league have struggled in recent months against a wide range of opponents. While they notched lopsided wins over some regional rivals like Honduras and Saint Kitts and Nevis, they have been on the wrong side of big defeats against the likes of Panama, the United Arab Emirates and more recently, Argentina. As a result, expectations are not high for this Costa Rica team and an opening match against Brazil does not feel like an occasion to turn things around.

Prediction

There's little reason to think Brazil will not open their Copa America campaign with a win, so expect a squad boasting world-class talent to get the job done against an inconsistent Costa Rica team. Pick: Brazil 3, Costa Rica 0
