The two teams meet at the Bernabeu tonight, and by the end of the two legged tie they will have played nine times in nine months.
“The best possible result against Barcelona is to win the tie”, commented the Portuguese.
“The team that is eliminated from the Copa del Rey will play to less games in February and we actually want to play those two fixtures.
“It will be a great match and we’re going to go all our for victory. This isn’t a summer tournament, so we’ll do our best.”
