Brazil will be missing midfield duo Kaka and Elano for their final Group G fixture against Portugal on Friday.

The influential AC Milan playmaker is suspended for the game after being sent off in his team's 3-1 triumph over the Ivory Coast, where Elano suffered a shin injury following a robust challenge from Cheik Tiote.

Meanwhile, Portugal manager Carlos Queiroz will be without Deco as the Brazil-born midfielder is still struggling with a hip problem that forced him to miss the 7-0 thrashing of North Korea.
