USA vs. Brazil Betting Guide: Best Bets for Wednesday’s Friendly

USA Brazil friendly

A potentially exciting summer for North American fans of international soccer is underway. Between Euro 2024, which kicks off on Friday, and the Copa America taking place Stateside, late June and early July will feature one intriguing international matchup after another.

But the busy upcoming stretch got off to a rough start for USMNT fans last Saturday night. Coach Gregg Berhalter’s team gave up two goals in the first 19 minutes en route to a 5-1 loss to Colombia in a friendly at FedEx Field.

With a crucial Copa America on U.S. soil set to kick off late next week, Berhalter and the USMNT need a strong response in Wednesday’s friendly against Brazil. USA-Brazil kicks off at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on TNT, Telemundo and Max.
