Brazil will have Neymar back, Militão on the right and Danilo on the left against South Korea.
The winner of the match between Brazil and South Korea will face Croatia in the quarterfinals next Friday.
(Reuters)- Coach Tite included Neymar, who has recovered from an ankle injury, in the starting lineup for the World Cup round of 16 match against South Korea on Monday, and improvised by playing defender Eder Militão at right-back and right-back Danilo at left-back.
Tite currently has no natural left-backs in his squad, as Alex Sandro is still recovering from a hip injury and Alex Telles was dropped after injuring his knee in the team's last group stage match in Qatar, a 1-0 defeat against Cameroon.
Like Neymar, Danilo is also returning from an ankle injury after missing Brazil's 1-0 victory over Switzerland and their defeat to Cameroon.
The winner of the match between Brazil and South Korea will face Croatia in the quarterfinals next Friday, after the reigning world runners-up eliminated Japan on penalties following a 1-1 draw in regulation and extra time on Monday.
See the lineups for both teams below.
Brazil: Alisson; Eder Militão, Thiago Silva (c), Marquinhos, Danilo, Casemiro, Lucas Paquetá, Neymar, Vinicius Jr., Raphinha, Richarlison
South Korea: Kim Seung-gyu, Kim Moon-hwan, Kim Min-jae, Kim Young-gwon, Kim Jin-su, Lee Jae-sung, Jung Woo-young, Jeong Woo-yeong, Hwang In-beom, Son Heung-min (c), Hwang Hee-chan, Cho Gue-sung.
