Porto captain Maicon has suggested that he is relishing the chance to play against Diego Costa in his side's Champions League clash with Chelsea.
The 27-year-old centre-back - who has made 159 appearances for the club - admits that Costa has a confrontational style, but insists he will be prepared for the match-up.
"Every player has his style," Maicon is quoted as saying by The Express.
"I will be physically and mentally prepared for Diego Costa. I have to do my best."
The two sides will meet at the Estadio do Dragao this evening.
