Brazil take on Argentina in the showpiece final of the Copa America in Maracaibo, Venezuela on Sunday.
Brazilian coach Dunga believes they are the underdogs for the 2205 BST kick off in the Panchencho Romero Stadium.
Dunga said: "Argentina are favourites to win the title, but Brazil are going to play with humility."
Argentina coach Alfio Basile added: "I know the importance of the game, to the people, but it's not a matter of life or death. It's a football match."
Basile will place his faith in the same line-up that beat Mexico in the semi-final as Argentina seek their 15th Copa victory.
West Ham's Carlos Tevez will partner Barcelona's Lionel Messi up front, with Hernan Crespo starting on the bench.
This is a final and I hope that we return to Brazil as champions

Crespo has scored three goals in the tournament, but has not played since suffering a thigh muscle injury in Argentina's second game, a 4-2 win over Colombia.
Basile said: "It was an easy decision, Tevez has been playing and he has done well, while Crespo has not played for 12 days."
Now in his second spell in charge, Basile guided Argentina to their last Copa win in 1993.
He pledged that Argentina would continue with their flowing style which has seen them 16 goals and win all five games en route to the final.
Basile said: "The only way to play football is by having the ball in your possession and knowing how to use it.
"We mustn't go on to the pitch worrying about how long it is since we have won anything.
Brazil will be missing Arsenal midfielder Gilberto Silva through suspension, although they have the tournament's leading scorer in six-goal striker Robinho.
The Real Madrid frontman said: "There are no advantages between the two teams, only rivalry.
"This is a final and I hope that we have the ball possession and return to Brazil as champions."
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/6899694.stmMaracaibo – Brazil and Argentina will take to the pitch, this Sunday, at 17h05 (21h05 GMT), in Maracaibo, in search of the most coveted national teams title of the year: the Copa América. After 2,250 hours of football and 25 matches, the Cup will be lifted by one of the two national squads, in which has been considered the greatest Copa America in history.
"Both teams are competitive and used to winning. Argentina are mature, a team whose men know each other well. On the other hand, the Brazilian national team was mounted now, with new athletes in search of their own space. "We have a great dialogue with the players and the technical staff. We give them freedom, but with responsibility. Our goal is to combine technical quality and competitiveness," said coach Dunga, who considers Argentina favorites.
But the Argentineans won't buy this favoritism and have handed the responsibility over to their bitter rivals. "Brazil have a great side. One can't underestimate Brazil just because they lack Ronaldinho and Kaká. It would be disrespectful towards the other players. They were called up because they have the skills and play for the best teams in the world," commented midfielder Esteban Cambiasso.
The news at the Argentinean camp is the return of Hernan Crespo. He has been discharged by the Argentinean medical department and will be on the bench, after a recovery that surprised everyone. Brazil will not be able to field their skipper Gilberto Silva. Midfielder Elano will replace him, and the captain's armband will be worn by defender Juan. "He boasts an exceptional behavior, leadership skills and is always ready to represent the Brazilian national squad. Juan helps the younger players who are arriving now and offers his contribution to the technical staff."
Both sides will repeat the final match held in the 2004 Copa América. On that occasion, Brazil drew level in extra time and won the penalty shootout, in a historical final. Now, Argentina came with all their superstars - Messi, Tevez, Riquelme, Mascherano, Veron... – to seek revenge. Brazil hope to stun their archrivals, using the talent of Robinho, Vagner Love and Júlio Baptista.
The final clash will take place at the José Encarnación Pachencho Romero Stadium, a 40-thousand seater. The referee will be Carlos Amarilla (Paraguay), assisted by Walter Rial (Uruguay) and Luis Sanchez (Venezuela).
Probable Lineups:
Brazil: Doni; Maicon, Alex, Juan and Gilberto; Mineiro, Josué, Júlio Baptista and Elano; Robinho and Vagner Love. Coach: Dunga
Argentina: Abbondanzieri; Javier Zanetti, Roberto Ayala, Gabriel Milito and Gabriel Heinze; Javier Mascherano, Esteban Cambiasso, Juan Sebastián Verón and Juan Román Riquelme; Lionel Messi and Carlos Tevez. Coach: Alfio Basile.

Basile said Saturday that Carlos Tevez would partner Lionel Messi in attack while Hernan Crespo, who has recovered from a sprained thigh muscle, would start on the bench.
'It was an easy decision, Tevez has been playing and he has done well while Crespo has not played for 12 days,' said Basile.
Crespo, who has scored three goals in the tournament, sprained a muscle as he converted a penalty in a 4-2 win over Colombia in Argentina's second game.
'Crespo has done a fantastic job to recover and so has the medical team,' added Basile.
'Hernan is very important for the team, especially from a morale point of view,' said team mate Esteban Cambiasso. 'It's also important for the players because we saw the hard work he did to recover.'
Team: Roberto Abbondanzieri; Javier Zanetti, Roberto Ayala, Gabriel Milito, Gabriel Heinze; Javier Mascherano, Juan Sebastian Veron, Esteban Cambiasso, Juan Roman Riquelme; Lionel Messi, Carlos Tevez

'From what Argentina have done so far, they are the favourites," he told reporters. "We've done our part by reaching the final, now we have to surpass that.
"But I always want to win, this is a final and anything can happen," he added.
"We have conviction in our work, we knew it would not be easy, that there would be innumerable difficulties on the way."
Argentina have scored 16 goals and won all five games in reaching the final. Brazil, on the other hand, lost to Mexico in the early rounds and needed penalties to beat Uruguay in their semi-final.
Brazil are also without Ronaldinho and Kaka, who asked to be rested from the tournament, while Argentina are at full strength.
"Argentina is a mature team which has played together before, Brazil is a new team with only two players from the last World Cup," added Dunga.
The old rivals also met in the 2004 Copa America final in Peru, where Brazil scored with the last kick of the game to force a 2-2 draw and then won on penalties.
