Brazil are currently in Muscat, the capital of Oman, whose national team they will face today at 15:00. Oman are the current champions of the Gulf Cup of Nations. The match has been highly anticipated in the country given that it's the Canarinha's first visit there.

Brazil are clear favourites to win given that they have five World Cup titles, that they qualified with ease for next year's World Cup and that they defeated England 1-0 this weekend. They've won 13 of their 16 games this year.

The Canarinha currently holds the second spot of the FIFA World Ranking behind Spain. Oman earned the 79th spot thanks to winning the Gulf Cup of Nations against Saudi Arabia in the penalty shootout.
