stage for this Round of 16 encounter, with Brazil's fluid attacking triangle built around <strong>Vin&iacute;cius J&uacute;nior<\/strong> likely to probe Norway's defensive shape from the left. The midfield contest will be pivotal, though Casemiro's fitness remains a genuine concern for the Sele&ccedil;&atilde;o heading into kickoff.<\/p><p class=\"mux-lineup-narrative\">Norway arrive with their own considerable threat through the centre, where <strong>Erling Haaland<\/strong> and Alexander S&oslash;rloth offer a physical presence that few defences at this tournament have handled comfortably. Martin &Oslash;degaard's creative licence behind them means Brazil's midfield will need to be disciplined as well as inventive.<\/p><div id=\"mux-odds-compare-ext\" class=\"mux-widget\">\n    <div
