"It's always good to play alongside our fans, especially coming away with a win, which is what we need at the moment we're going through. I hope we can play great games, and with the fans behind us, packing out the Tijuca stadium, it will be even better," says the power forward. "We had a great week preparing for the game, our team is getting more and more in tune, which is very good for the group," he adds.
As part of the preparation for the first game of the home series, it is important to analyze the opponent.
"Caxias do Sul is a team that's doing well and is motivated. They won their last game against Campo Mourão by a good 20-point margin. They have good, experienced players who are playing with confidence, so we know it won't be an easy task, but we're prepared and know the potential of our team. We'll always go in search of victory," concludes the number 16.
Tickets for the three matches at Tijuca Tênis Clube are now on sale. Rubro-Negro begins the sequence facing Caxias do Sul, on Thursday (30), at 19:30 pm.
