Brazil recall Pedro, Alisson and Cunha omitted
Joao Pedro has been recalled to the Brazil squad at the first time of asking after his surprising World Cup snub, but Alisson, Matheus Cunha and Thiago have been omitted.
Pedro was controversially left out by Carlo Ancelotti for this summer's tournament - a decision that looked even worse after Brazil's last-16 exit to Norway.
The forward has started the season well after enjoying a full pre-season with Chelsea and now returns for two fixtures against Australia, plus a game against India, while Brentford's Thiago makes way.
Alisson is an eye-catching absentee. He was Brazil's No 1 at the World Cup and started for Liverpool against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
Cunha has two assists in three Premier League games for Manchester United this season and featured regularly at the World Cup.
Arsenal's Gabriel and Bruno Guimaraes are in Ancelotti's squad, as are Manchester United's Andrey Santos and Manchester City's Vitor Reis.
Esteveo has been recalled after the Chelsea winger missed the World Cup through injury.
Nottingham Forest's Jair Cunha has been handed his first senior call-up.

Hayen: Vardy an important add-on for Burnley
Nicky Hayen has backed Jamie Vardy to be a vital source of goals for Burnley as they bid to turn around their season after a winless start continued in a 1-1 draw at Wrexham.
The 39-year-old Vardy, signed as a free agent over the weekend, served a one-match ban at the Racecourse Ground and watched on as Zeki Amdouni fired Burnley in front before Jacques Ekomie levelled.
It left Burnley still in the bottom three with only three points from six matches, but Hayen believes Vardy can help lift them up the table.
"First of all it's goals, that's why we brought him in and what is really important is he's an experienced player but also an intelligent player," he said.
"How we play, we create spaces and the goal we scored with Zeki, with Jamie he has such intelligent runs that he doesn't need a lot of chances before he scores goals. In his career that's what he had.
"This will be an add-on for our team but also our offensive players can learn a lot from him about movements on the ball and off the ball."

O'Neill: Chelsea youngster Mheuka looks a player
Martin O'Neill is expecting big things from on-loan Chelsea forward Sam Mheuka.
Mheuka had a goal disallowed against St Mirren at the weekend and has looked a threat during two substitute appearances for Celtic so far.
"I expect him to do well," O'Neill said.
"He's just getting to know the players. He's getting to know what's expected of him in terms of style of play, what we do with the ball and what we do without it.
"It's essentially what he does with the ball that will determine not only his time here, but his future in the game and he looks a player.
"We definitely have got better options up front than we had last season."
