Gonçalo Guedes gave his thoughts ahead of the LaLiga match against FC Barcelona, speaking to VCF Media.

Changing the dynamic

We are confident. We know that we can have a great game at home and bring the fans joy. We know that we are not coming into this one off a good run, but we are going to do everything we can to change it.

Working hard

At San Mamés we had a great game. We wanted to win. We played very well both defensively and offensively, with a lot of willingness to work hard.

Going for the win

We know it will be difficult, but not impossible. We have already shown this before. You have to give everything, prepare well for the game and go for the win. FC Barcelona are always a strong team. Even if a player is missing for them, their quality does not change much. All of the players that are there have a lot of quality.

His own form

I'm fine. I feel confident. I feel that I can contribute a lot to the team and I try to give my best in every game. I also haven't had any injuries for a long time, and I'm very happy about that. I’m excited about being able to give the maximum to the team.

The role of Mestalla

Playing at Mestalla helps us a lot. We are much more comfortable there. We have to face the game calmly, without pressure, and knowing that with our fans on our side it's always better. They have supported us a lot in almost every game, and that helps us. We are going to give everything -as we have always done- and we hope that Mestalla will be full -because that helps us a lot.
