Operário Ferroviário arrives motivated for this first clash of the Copa do Brasil's third phase against Grêmio. Despite the quality of the opponent and the evident difficulty the team will face to advance in the competition, the timing couldn't be better for this match. This is because, since the loss to Athletico Paranaense in the semifinals of the Campeonato Paranaense, Operário Ferroviário has played 2 matches in the Serie B of the Brazilian Championship and won both, while their next opponent, Grêmio, is reeling from a loss in the Serie A.
