Brazil have an ideal chance to secure a morale-boosting first win of 2023 as they take on Guinea and Senegal in a pair of June international friendly matches.
Interim head coach Ramon Menezes leads his team in two Europe-based exhibitions, firstly against Guinea at Espanyol’s RCDE Stadium in Barcelona on June 17, before facing Senegal in Lisbon three days later.
The Selecao are still recovering from their 2022 World Cup quarterfinal exit at the hands of Croatia, and there is no immediate sign of a successor for Tite being appointed.
Below are all the details to follow the Brazil vs. Guinea match, including the kickoff time for fans around the world.
