Joao Pedro believes "things will start to click" for Brazil's attackers amid their current struggles in front of goal.

Brazil have won just one of their last four games (D1 L2), most recently losing 2-1 to France at Gillette Stadium in Boston.

The Selecao have scored six goals across those four matches, though only three of those came from their attacking players, with Carlo Ancelotti having received some scrutiny for leaving out Brazil's record scorer Neymar.

Chelsea youngster Estevao scored once against Senegal and a penalty versus Tunisia, while Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli netted in a defeat to Japan.

Brazil face Croatia in their second international friendly of the March break, with Joao Pedro set for a start following Raphinha's injury against France.

The Chelsea forward is confident Brazil's frontline will find their goalscoring touch ahead of the World Cup in June.

"We're getting to know each other better," Joao Pedro told ESPN Brasil.

"I play in England, Vinicius Junior plays in Spain, and Raphinha is at another club. We need to be training together just as we do at our clubs, where we spend the whole year.

"With the national team, you do things differently to how you do them at your club, so you need to adapt quickly.

"With more training time, things start to run more smoothly. Things will start to click soon enough."

Brazil will face Morocco, Scotland and Haiti in Group C at the World Cup, with the hopes of lifting the trophy for the first time since 2002.

Joao Pedro, however, believes their long wait for the title is hampering their current crop of attacking talent.

"Back in the day we had Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Romario, but if you look at football today, Brazil has players like that," added Joao Pedro.

"There's Vini at Real Madrid, Raphinha at Barcelona, Estevao and me at Chelsea, and Andrey [Santos], too. They all play for top clubs.

"What is a bother is that it's been a long time since Brazil won a World Cup. We're the greatest national team in the world, and when you go without winning for a long time, that pressure builds up."
