Is Brazil v Tunisia on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch friendly for free

Brazil take on Tunisia in their final international match of the year at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Lille.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side, who have already qualified for the 2026 World Cup, defeated Senegal in a friendly at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, in a match where Arsenal centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes picked up an injury.

Tunisia, who have also already qualified for next summer’s showpiece, are unbeaten in four matches and last lost to Egypt, 3-0, in September. They beat Jordan in a friendly on Friday night.

Five-time World Cup winners Brazil will be looking to end the year on a high, after losing to Japan and Bolivia since Ancelotti took charge of the team in the summer.
