The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has confirmed that Brazil will play Portugal at the Emirates Stadium in London on February 6th.

The fixture was announced early on Thursday morning but the location was not revealed until late this afternoon. The two teams will meet at the home of Arsenal, The Emirates Stadium, where Brazil beat Argentina 3-0 with goals from Kaká (x2) and Elano in September last year.

Brazil and Portugal have met 16 times with the former dominating; 11 victories, three draws and two defeats. One of those defeats came in the 2003, their last meeting, when Carlos Alberto Parreira's side lost 2 - 1.
