Uruguay vs. Brazil Live Stream: Watch World Cup Qualifying Online, Lineups

The two South American powers meet in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday, Nov. 17.

Longtime South American foes Uruguay and Brazil continue World Cup qualifying against one another, when they face in Montevideo on Tuesday.

It's still early in South America's qualifying gauntlet, but both sides are in the qualifying places through three of 18 matches. The top four teams automatically qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, while the fifth-place team goes into an intercontinental playoff for one more place in the tournament.

Both Uruguay and Brazil will be missing their leading stars for this meeting between two of the six nations that have won multiple World Cups. 

Neymar remains out for Brazil with an injury suffered at PSG, while Luis Suarez tested positive for the coronavirus and is forced to miss this match (along with his first opportunity to face Barcelona since the club offloaded him to Atletico Madrid).

Brazil leads CONMEBOL's qualifying table as the only nation to secure the maximum nine points through three matches, though its 1-0 home win over Venezuela on Friday left plenty to be desired. Roberto Firmino's second-half goal was the difference. That result looks a bit better following Venezuela's win over Chile on Tuesday.

Uruguay sits in fourth position with six points, sandwiching a loss to Ecuador with wins over Chile and Colombia, but Suarez is the leading scorer in the qualifying tournament thus far with four goals, so other stars from La Celeste will need to step up vs. the Seleção. Other absences for shorthanded Uruguay include goalkeeper Martín Silva, defenders Sebastián Coates and Matias Viña, midfielder Federico Valverde and striker Maxi Gómez.
