Bruno Guimaraes could make his first World Cup start as Brazil face Cameroon in their final Group G fixture. The Selecao have already booked their place in the knockout stages, and will guarantee top spot if they avoid defeat against the Indomitable Lions.
Newcastle United have six representatives in Qatar, all of whom have secured progress from the group stages. However, Kieran Trippier is the only member of this group to actually earn a start in the competition, with the rest restricted to substitute appearances or yet to feature.
Without doubt, the most surprising omission so far has been Guimaraes' struggle to force his way into Brazil's starting eleven. The January signing was an unused substitute in the opening win against Serbia, before being introduced around the hour mark against Switzerland.
