Barcelona striker Luis Suarez has revealed that he and Neymar have prepared an important prize for the winner of this week's big 2018 World Cup qualifier in Recife, reportedย Goal.

The two have formed a close friendship on and off the field, as Suarez told Uruguayan newspaper El Pais (h/t Sport).

Neymar's Brazil host Uruguayโ€”who they trail by two points in CONMEBOL qualifyingโ€”on Friday, and the winner will receive a free meal when the pair return to Spain from international duty.

"I have a bet with Neymar. The winner gets a burger," Suarez told reporters. "He is a great team-mate and we always make jokes at Barcelona.ย But whoever will win this game will be enjoying himself and he who loses will be hearing it from the other."

The match will be Suarez's first for Uruguay since being banned for his bite onย Giorgio Chiellini at the 2014 World Cup, though he's not letting that fact overshadow his comeback.

"What has happened in the past has helped me how to deal with the pressure," he said. "Uruguay are a very united team that are not reliant on anyone."
