Shortcut to change keyboard language on XFCE without having to click on xfce-panel plugin

I have a Xubuntu 20.04. I added the Keyboard Layouts applet plugin to my xfce-panel. To change the keyboard language, I can click on it.

However, I want to be faster. I'd like to press a key combination (shortcut) so that I don't need to click on that all the time.

  1. Is there a built-in shortcut to do so?
  2. If not, is there a command I can execute? So that I can create a custom keyboard shortcut that runs this command.

My languages are Portuguese (Brazil) and English (US, intl., with dead keys).

In the layout tab of Keyboard settings, the shortcut key can be set in the Change layout option combobox.
