Dudu Cearense looks ahead to the tonight’s game, as his club Goiás face Coritiba at home. The defensive midfielder was full of praise for opposing midfielder Alex, whom he’s likely to be marking.

He commented that Coritiba have many strengths, but still believes his side can secure the win.

When asked to comment on the opposition he said: "It is a compact team, with the experience of Alex with whom I had the opportunity to play alongside in the national team. He is an excellent player with great intelligence on the pitch"

Dudu is likely to retain his place in the team as Amaral is still out injured, and the former Olympiacos and CSKA Moscow midfielder hopes to impress enough to make this place permanent.

"I got an opportunity and I’ve managed to do well, but do not feel solid in the team yet.

“This trust I will only win on the field, not with words, and I have to prove [myself] every day to the coach" Dudu said.

The coach Enderson Moreira confirmed how Goiás will line up tonight, barring any late injury problems the team will be as follows: Renan; Vítor, Ernando, Rodrigo, William Matheus; Thiago Mendes, Dudu Cearense, Ramón, Hugo; Araújo, Walter.
