Neymar is set to return to action and is available for Brazil's third and final FIFA World Cup group stage fixture against Scotland.

Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti didn't reveal if the Santos attacker will be in action at the Miami Stadium.

Neymar was recalled by Ancelotti for the World Cup after almost three years away from the national team but hasn't made an appearance yet due to a calf injury.

Ancelotti said, 'Neymar is available. He worked this week and can be available for the match.'

'I've really got to know him well. He has worked very seriously, trying to recover as quickly as possible.'

'I'm very happy with him. Even if he doesn't play, he brings experience, he brings knowledge of the game, he helps the younger players.'

When asked about how many minutes Neymar could play, Ancelotti joked, 'He can play 90 minutes - walking. No, he's fine, he worked very well, he trained very well.'
