Chelsea's Brazilian ace Luiz wary of Australia

David Luiz is not excepting an easy run-out when Brazil hosts Australia in an international friendly this weekend.

A Selecao take on the Socceroos in Brasilia on Saturday (Sunday 5:00am AEST) and Chelsea defender Luiz is aware that he and his teammates have a decent test in front of them.

"Australia is a very good team, (they've) already qualified for the World Cup, (they) defend well, they will respect Brazil but also will want to win to make history," said Luiz.

"It's a team that plays with two lines of four and is very defensive to try to surprise (teams on the counter-attack)."
