Brazil have won all five of their world cup matches against African teams and kept a clean sheet in every one of the matches.
The Elephants 0-0 draw with Portugal marked the first time they have failed to score in a world cup tournament match but also the first time they have kept a clean sheet.
Brazil have only lost one of the their last 27 internationals.
It could be billed as a Drogba V Fabiano game. The Chelsea hit man has scored 44 goals in 69 international caps with the Sevilla man scoring 25 goals in 38 caps. That's an average of a goal every 1.5 games for Drogba and
Fabiano.
So, what price that both players score tonight??
Fabiano is 5/4 to score at anytime with Drogba at a possibly value 2/1 if he starts. If you think Fabiano will score first it's 4/1 with Drogba at 6/1.
Of course, there is a vast array of talent on both sides tonight with what will be hopefully an entertianing game full of lots of skill and goalmouth action.
The cold end is going for Luis Fabiano to get the first goal and for Brazil to win at 5/1.
