At 1.39, Brazil are clear favourites (implied probability ~72%). But three factors push value toward the goal markets rather than the result: Neymar’s return, Raphinha’s absence and the Miami heat. We break it down below for Kiwi punters — kick-off lands at a friendly 10:00 AM NZT.

The swing factor is the attack: Neymar returns after two games out (calf), but Raphinha is injured — a heavy swap. Add a heat index around 39°C and storm risk, which slow the tempo.

Brazil should win (1.39), but heat, likely rotation and a half-fit Neymar argue against backing a big winning margin. A price is never a guarantee.
