Gorilla FC winger Mercy Ikenna Duru says their match with Rayon Sports on Saturday, April 16 will be a tough encounter but still believes they are good enough to defeat the blues.

The Nigerian who has been a standout player for Gorilla despite their poor season maintains that both teams need the maximum points at hand and that makes it a tough game.

"The match against Rayon will be hard. Considering our position on the table, it is not that safe and we desperately need the three points to stay in the league next season." Ikenna told Times Sport.

Ikenna who set up the goal in the first leg as Gorilla drew 1-1 with Rayon Sports has so far provided five assists and scored twice this season.

Gorilla are in 12th place and just one point better than teams in the relegation zone.
