Who will be Brazil's possible opponents in the knockout round?

Brazil will take on Scotland in their final Group C match at 4:00 am on Thursday, June 25 (Bangladesh time). With four points from two matches, Brazil are in a strong position but have not yet secured their knockout berth.

Brazil's final position in the group — champions, runners-up or third place — will determine their path in the Round of 32.

If Brazil finish as group champions
Brazil will face the runners-up of Group F, likely Japan or Sweden, in Houston on June 30. If they advance, they could face Norway or Ivory Coast on July 5, followed by a potential quarter-final against Germany, South Korea or Switzerland on July 10. A semi-final on July 15 could pit them against Spain, Portugal, Ghana or the United States, leading to the final on July 20 in New York-New Jersey.

If Brazil finish as group runners-up
Brazil would face a tougher route, starting with a potential clash against the Netherlands on July 1 in Guadalupe, Mexico. A win would set up a last-16 tie against Morocco or South Korea on July 4. The quarter-finals could bring France or Germany on July 10, with a semi-final against England or France on July 15.

If Brazil finish third
Brazil could still qualify as one of the best third-placed teams. Their path would be determined by other groups' results, with potential opponents including Mexico or the Netherlands in the Round of 32, England, Belgium or Spain in the last 16, Argentina or France in the quarter-finals, and England or Portugal in the semi-finals.

Brazil's match against Scotland will decide their final group position and their knockout path.
