#Title BRAZIL seek reset against Haiti Brazil are currently third in Group C, boasting one point from one match, while Haiti are at the bottom of the table, having lost their opening game of the tournament to Scotland. Brazil and Haiti have locked horns on three previous occasions, with the former having won all three games, scoring 17 times and conceding only once. The only competitive meeting between Brazil and Haiti came in the group stage of the 2016 Copa America, and it ended in a thumping 7-1 win for the five-time world champions. Brazil’s starting XI against Morocco received a lot of criticism, and Ancelotti could make a few changes for this game. Forward Igor Thiago, who failed to impress, could make way for teenage sensation Endrick, who remained as an unused substitute in the opener. Another change may see Lucas Paqueta replaced by Matheus Cunha, though the latter could also lead the line. Ancelotti has another bold call to make in midfield. While Bruno Guimaraes is certain to start, Casemiro struggled against Morocco. Fabinho came on to replace him at half-time, and may start ahead of him alongside Guimaraes. Still recovering from a calf injury, Neymar returned to training for Brazil recently but remains unlikely to feature in the remaining group fixtures.

Brazil face Haiti on Saturday morning, needing a World Cup reset rather than another misty-eyed reminder of their glittering past, after a disappointing Group C draw with Morocco left Carlo Ancelotti’s side bruised, questioned, and with little room for another flop. A moment of brilliance from Vinícius Junior rescued Brazil in their opener, but the five-time champions will need more cohesion and attacking intent against underdogs Haiti at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia -- especially from Raphinha, who is yet to replicate his club form in the tournament.
