Aiming for their second consecutive win over an African side, Brazil are set to lock horns against Senegal in an international friendly in Lisbon on Tuesday.
Beginning his charge as interim manager of the South American side with a 2-1 upset against Morocco, Ramon Menezes led his men to a 4-1 win over Guinea on Saturday.
Senegal have already qualified for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations finals regardless of their 1-1 draw with Benin. However, Saturday's result brought an end to Aliou Cisse's side's perfect record in the qualifiers in Group L.
