  1. Post update

    Brazil 0-0 Switzerland

    Yellow and blue against red, it's just like an Oxford v Swindon derby really.

  2. Post update

    Brazil 0-0 Switzerland

    Raphinha whips the cross in but it's just behind Richarlison. Ex-Leeds almost finding ex-Watford.

  3. Post update

    Brazil 0-0 Switzerland

    Richarlison almost pounces onto a loose ball 30 yards out but a Swiss player just recovers in time.

    Vinicius Jr is fouled on the left. Another free-kick for Brazil.

    I'd say it's 85% Brazil shirts in here, there are a few Swiss fans in the corner closest to Yann Sommer's goal but Doha can be mistaken for Rio de Janeiro tonight.

  5. Post update

    Brazil 0-0 Switzerland

    Brazil win a free-kick within 20 seconds, they went straight on the run from kick-off.

  6. KICK-OFF

    Brazil 0-0 Switzerland

    We are under way at a stadium that was built for this World Cup and will be 100% taken apart when the tournament is over.

  7. Another draw?

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Both previous meetings between Brazil and Switzerland at the World Cup have ended in draws (2-2 in 1950, 1-1 in 2018).

  9. 'Brazil have huge respect for the Swiss'

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    BBC Sport South American football expert

    I know that Brazil have huge respect for the Swiss, they met them in the last World Cup and were held to a 1-1 draw. They're much more worried about the Swiss than they were about the Serbians.

  10. Post update

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Barcelona winger Raphinha looks very emotional during Brazil's anthem.

  11. Post update

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    National anthems time.

  12. Sutton's prediction

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Sutton

    Switzerland will be delighted with their win over Cameroon, but they are quite an average side.

    I think their pace up front means they will cause Brazil more problems than Serbia did, and they might get a goal here.

    Brazil took a bit of time to get going against Serbia but they showed some of their attacking power in the end, and it will be a similar story here.

    Sutton's prediction: 2-1

  13. Flying in and out

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    The Doha metro is the best place for some mingling and seeing all the different colours of the nations competing at the World Cup...and some from those that aren't either.

    I've seen some Scotland and Egypt shirts knocking around.

    A Swiss gentleman called Jerome sat down next to me hoping for a win for his country today.

    He lives and works in Dubai and has taken the one hour flight over, before heading straight back after full-time, which will be around 10pm local time.

    "I'll be in bed by 2am," he said. "It's only a short trip over. The hotels are too expensive so a day trip makes sense."

  14. Can Swiss make their own history?

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Switzerland are looking to win their opening two games at a World Cup for the first time ever.

    In 2018 they drew with Brazil and beat Serbia. This group has three of the same four teams as that one.

  15. Can Brazil make history?

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Brazil are unbeaten in their last 16 group-stage games at the World Cup.

    No side have ever gone 17 without defeat in group games.

    Norway in 1998 were the last team to beat Brazil in the groups - scoring twice in the final seven minutes to win 2-1.

    You'd have to go back to 1966 for another instance of Brazil losing in the first group stage of a World Cup.

  16. The men in form

    Brazil v Switzerland (16:00 GMT)

    Richarlison has scored nine goals in his last seven appearances for Brazil.

    Breel Embolo has netted in three of his last four matches for Switzerland.

  17. Brazil are in town

    Brazil fans

    It was green and gold shirts, flags and scarves everywhere you looked outside the stadium before kick-off.

    Brazil are in town and have piqued interest, with plenty of Neymar shirts around.

    Supporters, though, won't get to see the PSG star in action as he has been ruled out with injury until the knockout stage.

    Big blow for the team and those that had purchased tickets in anticipation of getting to see him.
