Casemiro starts for Brazil but Antony and Fred are named on the bench vs Serbia | OneFootball

Another group of Manchester United are preparing to make their World Cup bows for this year’s edition of the tournament, with Brazil stars Casemiro, Fred and Antony all making the Selecao 26-man squad. Alex Telles, who is on loan at Sevilla, is also in the squad.

Brazil take on high-flying Serbia in their opening game in Qatar and one United player has been named on the starting line-up as the South American giants aim to end their 20-year wait for world domination.

Casemiro, a regular starter for his nation, will anchor the midfield alongside West Ham star Lucas Paqueta, whilst Barcelona winger Raphinha is preferred to Antony, as per CBF Futebol.

Switzerland won their game against Cameroon in the other game in Group G, meaning that victory is paramount for Brazil ahead of the meeting between the two sides next week.

Serbia are, however, in terrific form and will fancy their chances against Tite’s men. Serbia are unbeaten in their last six games, winning five of them.
