Brazil vs Haiti — Live Score, How to Watch & Preview

Brazil vs Haiti kicks off in GROUP C of the 2026 World Cup. Below you’ll find the live score, the kickoff time in your own timezone, exactly where to watch in every country, the full head-to-head record and the key players to watch.

Match preview

Brazil, a perennial powerhouse, enter Group C as overwhelming favorites. With a squad brimming with talent like Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo, they boast a fluid, attack-minded style under manager Dorival Júnior. Their depth and individual brilliance make them a threat from anywhere on the pitch. Haiti, meanwhile, are making their first World Cup appearance, a historic achievement. They rely on a disciplined defensive structure and quick counter-attacks, led by captain Duckens Nazon and the creativity of Frantzdy Pierrot. For Brazil, the key is to break down Haiti's compact defense without being caught off guard. Haiti will need a near-perfect defensive display and clinical finishing to cause an upset. Brazil's superior quality should prevail, but Haiti's spirit and organization could make it a tighter contest than expected. A win is essential for Brazil to top the group, while Haiti will aim to keep the scoreline respectable and perhaps snatch a historic point.
