Austria failed to qualify for the World Cup, but defeated Germany 2-1 in an international friendly last week. Marko Arnautovic is undoubtedly his country's star attacking player, and enjoyed a fine season at West Ham, while Bayern Munich's David Alaba provides pace and creativity on the left flank.

A semi-experimental XI beat Croatia 2-0 last time out, with Neymar scoring a truly brilliant goal on his return to the international fold. The PSG forward makes his first start since February for club or country, while a lot of players who were on the bench against Croatia are part of the starting XI to face Austria. Fred, who is set to join Manchester United, will not feature after suffering an ankle injury in training.

Match Preview Brazil look in fine form heading into the World Cup in Russia, and showed signs of their brilliant best against Croatia, particularly with Neymar's phenomenal strike at Anfield. The PSG man embarked on a mazy dribble, beat a number of defenders, and smashed home a finish so fierce it was past the goalkeeper before he could react. Yet they will have to be wary of the upset against the plucky Austrians, who were seen as massive underdogs when they scheduled a friendly with reigning world champions Germany. Of course, they ended up running out 2-1 winners, ruining goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's return to the XI. Brazil, though, have picked their opponents carefully, well aware they will come up against European opposition in the form of Switzerland and Serbia in Russia, and thus want to eliminate any potential banana skins at source. If Neymar continues his brilliant form, he could win this game and, ultimately, the entire tournament for a country still mourning the 7-1 defeat to Germany on home soil four years ago.<doc-sep>How to watch Austria vs. Brazil in an international friendly on Sunday, June 10.

The Selecao are among the favourites to win this summer's showcase in eastern Europe and are unbeaten in their past 10 outings as they make their way to the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna. Neymar made his return from a lengthy injury lay-off in Brazil's most recent matchup, a 2-0 win over Croatia on June 3, and the Paris Saint-Germain gem has one last opportunity to prove his fitness before the World Cup. Austria may be minnows compared to Sunday's opponents, but they too have been in imperious form of late. They are unbeaten in eight games and have won their past seven in succession.

Brazil's talisman will escalate his preparations with a start on Sunday, as South American football writer Jack Lang wrote: Franco Foda's side seem almost unlucky in that it was only right at the end of Marcel Koller's six-year reign in charge—departing in November 2017—that results started to pick up. Austria missed out on a place at the 2018 World Cup but have lost only one of their 12 matches since the beginning of 2017, winning eight and drawing four. Brazil would be wise to keep their wits about them in Vienna considering Das Team most recently produced a 2-1 comeback win over world champions Germany. Foda has his team running in slick fashion, with the likes of David Alaba and Marko Arnautovic among their brightest assets. ESPN Stats & Info touched on the kind of rare revolution that's occurring within their ranks: For all the attacking dynamite Brazil manager Tite has at his disposal, however, it's the Selecao's defence that's impressed most of late, with his team managing to keep clean sheets in their past four matches. Brazil haven't conceded a goal in 387 minutes of play, and and ESPN FC panel recently discussed the team's status as World Cup contenders: Austria don't have many more results of late that quite compare to the win over Germany in terms of lustre, but anything other than defeat on Sunday would be counted as a turn up for the books. Tite's last opportunity to test his stars before heading to Russia is sure to be watched by certain World Cup peers looking to get the inside scoop on one of the tournament's heavily tipped outfits, but Austria look like a tricky host.<doc-sep>VIENNA (Reuters) - Brazil scored three superbly-taken goals, including a stunning Neymar effort, to beat feisty Austria 3-0 in sweltering conditions on Sunday and put the finishing touches to their impressive World Cup preparation. Gabriel Jesus and Philippe Coutinho scored the other goals for the five-times champions who showed great patience in the first half as they worked to break Austria down before turning on the style after the interval. Slideshow ( 8 images ) Neymar started a game for the first time since injuring his metatarsal in February although he played in the second half of last week’s win 2-0 over Croatia when he celebrated his return with a goal. His goal was sublime as he left one defender on the ground before scoring between goalkeeper Heinz Lindner’s legs. It was also the first time the quartet of Neymar, Jesus, Coutinho and Willian had started a game together. Austria, unbeaten in their last eight games and winners over Germany one week ago, proved uncomfortable opponents and had nothing to lose in front of a capacity 48,500 crowd, having failed to qualify for the World Cup. Neymar, substituted in the 83rd minute, was on the receiving end of some rough challenges and needed treatment after a tackle from behind from Aleksandar Dragovic who was booked. “The concentration and competitiveness of the team was laudable,” Brazil coach Tite told reporters. “Today was another example that, mentally, we are maturing. It was a difficult match, with heavy physical contact and we did really well.” He would not confirm, however, that the same side would start Brazil’s opening World Cup game against Switzerland on June 17. With the temperature hot enough for water breaks, tempers frayed as Casemiro replied with a rough tackle of his own. Marko Arnautovic gave Brazil a couple of early frights before the South Americans went ahead in the 36th minute, Jesus scoring with a delightful dinked effort from a difficult angle for his 10th goal in 17 internationals. Neymar’s goal in the 63rd minute was even better as he collected the ball on the left of the area, performed a drag-back which left Aleksandar Dragovic on the floor before sending his shot between Lindner’s legs. That pulled him level with Romario’s total of 55 international goals, making him Brazil’s third joint top-scorer after Pele and Ronaldo. Six minutes later, substitute Roberto Firmino set Coutinho clear down the left and he curled his shot wide of Lindner in for the third. Brazil, who have won all four games this year without conceding a goal, also face Costa Rica and Serbia in Group E. They will head to Russia in confident mood, having lost only one out of 21 games -- a friendly against Argentina -- in Tite’s two years in charge.<doc-sep>
Brazil plays its final friendly in preparation for the World Cup when it visits Austria on Sunday. It's another opportunity for this team to gel, further implement Neymar since his return from a foot injury and build some more positive vibes ahead of Russia 2018. Played in Vienna, Austria, Tite's men go up against a talented Austria team that finished four points back of a qualifying spot to make the World Cup. The team was in a tough group with Serbia, Ireland and Wales, gaining 15 points from 10 matches in one of the most competitive groups in UEFA's qualifying competition. Neymar is expected to see the field and potentially start, and this comes a week after he returned from injury and looked really good doing so. Keep an eye on the battle between Bayern Munich defender David Alaba and Neymar, who could see plenty of each other if Alaba slides into a more defensive midfielder role. If he does play left back, he may encounter Neymar if the Brazilian switches wings in the match or floats to the other side from time to time.
