The Selecao were faced by an unknown quantity in their opening match, but Cote d'Ivoire provide Dunga's men with an altogether more familiar foe in the second of Brazil's Group of Death' encounters.
Cote d'Ivoire's performance against Portugal in their Group G opener last Tuesday stunned many and kudos have been pouring out in favour of the team's coach, Sven-Goran Eriksson, who has visibly reformed this once unsatisfactory squad, especially in defence.
Ivory Coast manager Sven-Goran Eriksson suggested that Chelsea hitman Didier Drogba could be fit to start against Brazil on Sunday.
The Blues star's World Cup was in major doubt after suffering a broken right arm in a pre-tournament friendly against Japan.
However, after successful surgery Drogba was able to come off of the bench in Ivory Coast's goalless draw against Portugal in their World Cup opener.
Group G is shaping up to be the pool with fewest goals scored. The section features four sides who placed emphasis on clean-sheets, though Didier Drogba, Cristiano Ronaldo and co have the star quality and golden touch at club level. Cote d'Ivoire, Portugal, DPR Korea and even Brazil rarely leave space for opposition to exploit. The three points taken from the Asians might yet be the only three awarded in the group stage. Although let's hope not.
Having lifted the UEFA Champions League, the Serie A title and the Italian Cup with Inter Milan, Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar now wants the FIFA World Cup and the crowning respect of his peers.
The 30-year-old was only a back-up at the 2006 FIFA World Cup but has become Brazil coach Dunga's first choice as the South Americans bid for a sixth title in South Africa, having started off with a narrow 2-1 success over North Korea.
