The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) revealed that Samba will play a friendly against Argentina on November 15 in the Super Classico meeting in Riyadh, noting that the team will conclude this year with another friendly against South Korea in Abu Dhabi.

Brazil beat Argentina in a friendly in Saudi Arabia last year with a 1-0 win for Joao Miranda, while Samba have not won any of their four friendlies after the Copa America in July.

Lionel Messi may return to Argentina's friendly in Brazil, where he will be handed a three-month suspended sentence after criticizing the CONMEBOL federation and accusing him of corruption following the end of the Copa America, which was banned from the semi-finals by the heroic Brazil.
