Ederson is set to start ahead of Alisson for Brazil’s friendly against Panama on Saturday.
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson has been the Selecao No.1 during manager Tite’s reign and forced Ederson to watch from the bench at World Cup 2018.

Brazil are spoilt for choice when it comes to top goalkeepers
But the Manchester City stopper will reportedly get the nod when Brazil host Panama this weekend.
It is the first of two friendly games for Brazil, who entertain England’s 2020 Euro qualifying opponents Czech Republic on Tuesday, live on talkSPORT 2.
The matches are part of their preparations for this summer’s Copa America.
Alisson’s status as Brazil’s No.1 has restricted Ederson to just three senior caps.
In October, Ederson praised his international team-mate when talking about their rivalry.
He said: “I think there is a lot of similarity between the two of us, he is having a very positive start to the season at Liverpool.

“Here he is one step ahead of me, he played in a World Cup but that’s not a reason to work less.
“Brazil is well served for goalkeepers, many who have not been to the World Cup are very good. Those who are picked will do a good job.”

Errors leading to goals: 0
Alisson

The race for the Golden Glove award is heating up with Alisson leading Ederson by three clean sheets.
Alisson tops the table with 17 shutouts as Ederson trails in second with 14.
The former Roma ace has also been the busier of the two goalkeepers, making 16 more saves.
However, Ederson has been more reliable between the sticks with Alisson committing three errors leading to goals.
The duo will now battle it out on the international stage but who will grab the upper hand?
It’s likely Alisson will return to the starting XI as Brazil face the Czech Republic live on talkSPORT 2 on Tuesday.
