Ronaldinho and Kaka are not guaranteed a place in Brazil's starting line-up to face Algeria on Wednesday according to national coach Dunga.
The duo are back with the Selecao after missing the Copa America to rest after long seasons respectively in the Spanish and Italian leagues, but both of them will have to fight for a place in the starting XI along with the other 19 players in the squad.
"All 21 (squad members) could play. Nobody has a place by right," said Dunga before flying to France for the match in Montpellier.
"The coach's job is to name players, then they have to demonstrate they can play."
He continued: "In the Copa America I felt satisfied with the team I had. The warm-up to the 2010 World Cup qualifiers started in the first friendly against Norway and continued in the Copa America. I want to have a strong squad each time."
